They started demonstration for a nine-point charter of demand on Monday and continued the protests after the education ministry postponed the university’s convocation for operating without any VC, pro-VC and treasurer appointed by the president of the country. 

The protesters’ demands also included cancellation of the administrative decisions taken by Shariful.
