DU Vice-Chancellor Yogesh Tyagi met the office-bearers of the Delhi University Students Union (DUSU) for the first time in eight months, the students' body said Friday.
According to the RSS-affiliated Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, which has three office-bearers in the students' union, a delegation of the student outfit met the VC Thursday.
This is the first time since the students union's election that the VC has met DUSU president Shakti Singh and DUSU Joint Secretary Jyoti Chaudhary.
Starting supplementary examinations, building new hostels, tactile pathway facilities for differently-abled students, a 24x7 library, creating new reading halls, building new hostels, increasing dietary allowance for sports students, were some of the demands put forth by the delegation.
Other demands included making available a gynaecologist and counsellor in every college, one course one fee for post graduate students, a centralised and transparent hostel admission process, Vice Chancellor Scholarship for differently-abled students, DUSU to be part of the Academic and Executive Council of the university.
"Earlier, a delegation met registrar, proctor and other varsity officials in view of these demands. The university officials accepted a few of our demands then, but they were never implemented. If the vice-chancellor does not fulfil the promises, the DUSU will be forced to call a large scale student movement in the university," the DUSU president said.
