The students wanted the administration to accept their demands including probe into alleged corruption and malpractice by the varsity staff and suppression of students’ freedom of expression.

They also wanted withdrawal of ‘vindictive’ cases lodged against the students by the varsity administration. They demanded construction of new hostels and introduction of one-window system in the admin section of the university for the facility of students.
