The discussion took almost 6 long hours to come to a haul. During the discussion, the administration appealed the teachers who were protesting to withdraw their agitation.
The administration also said that it is ready to discuss any relevant issue in an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect. The protest has been started with the demand of the absorption of the 4,500-odd ad hoc teachers of the varsity into permanent positions.
