Patiala: Amid the ongoing protests of students against the Vice Chancellor of the varsity, the authorities of  Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law (RGNUL)  on Monday issued orders to close the institution till further orders. The students of the university have been carrying out their protest after Vice Chancellor allegedly invaded their privacy by conducting a surprise inspection in the girls’ hostel.

According to the students, the vice-chancellor had allegedly conducted a surprise inspection of the girls’ hostel and questioned the girls’ dressing sense, thereby violating their privacy.

Protesting students staged a sit-in demonstration outside the Vice Chancellor’s residence on the university campus. University officials said the students staged a siege and spent the night in front of the VC’s house, demanding his resignation.

The talks between the agitating students and the university authorities on Monday failed to yield any results. Security guards of the university had barricaded the main gates of the university and no outsider was allowed to enter the university premises.
