This is despite requests from Bangalore University vice chancellor Prof K R Venugopal and UVCE principal Prof H N Ramesh. A student said, “We had asked for the auditorium for September 12 and 17. The authorities gave us the auditorium for September 12 but refused to give it on 17. We want the auditorium for only three hours.

What is the use of an auditorium if students cannot use it?” Sources said BCU officials are refusing to provide the auditorium due to expenses incurred in electricity, water.
