Proctor made serious allegations
AMU Proctor Wasim Ali condemned the incident that happened on Wednesday and said that this is a very bad incident. He said, "I was present there myself on the report that we received after the incident and on that basis we filed a case against 9 students yesterday and suspended 6 students. One of these students was the one who tried to stop the Vice Chancellor's car and tried to lie down. Strict action has been taken against all of them"
Proctor Waseem Ali said, "This kind of behavior will not be tolerated in any institution, especially in AMU." Waseem Ali also said that out of the eight-nine students involved in this, three students are not from the university and strict action will be taken against them too.
Proctor Wasim Ali alleged that these three together tried to spoil the atmosphere of the entire university. He said that some engineering students had come with the problem of attendance. These students were heard and the VC assured that this problem would be discussed in the DS meeting.
According to Wasim Ali, after the assurance of solving the attendance problem, when these students left, the VC also started leaving. As the VC sat in her car at 6 in the evening, three outside boys and others tried to spoil the atmosphere and instigated other students. This created chaos at the spot.
