Kolkata: Students of Rajabazar Science College of Calcutta University yesterday lifted the 16-hour gherao of the Vice-Chancellor and the Pro Vice-Chancellor over their demand for better campus placement following assurance from the authorities.
Later West Bengal Governor M K Naryanan, who is also the Chancellor of state universities, summoned Vice-Chancellors of Calcutta University and Jadavpur University and said that gherao could not be supported.
"The Governor agreed with our viewpoint that gherao cannot be supported. If there are demands by students, there are norms to ventilate them through democratic means. No one should take law into their own hands," Calcutta University VC Suranjan Das told reporters.
