Students and activists of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) protested against the administration of Presidency PU College in Hebbal and its Yelahanka branch on Tuesday in Bengaluru.
A student who spoke to The Hindu said, “The college administration had earlier announced holidays from October 10 to 21. Now, it has cancelled them all of a sudden. The college administration has not even clarified the reasons for cancelling the holidays.”
Meanwhile, ABVP member Manikanta Kalasa said, “According to Education Department orders, PU colleges must follow the official academic calendar and declare holidays for students. But the college has cancelled them all of a sudden.”
Several calls and text messages from The Hindu to the college principal went unanswered.
