            Students' stir disrupts 
            exams in Aligarh university

            Aligarh: All important 
            activities in the Aligarh Muslim University (AMU), including 
            admissions and examinations, remained paralyzed Tuesday on account 
            of the forced locking of the central offices by the students' union 
            a day earlier. 
             
            Vice Chancellor (VC) P.K. Abdul Azis constituted a committee to talk 
            to the students' union, which locked the administrative block and 
            registrar's office. But president of the union A.A. Farooqui 
            rejected the offer. 
             
            Talking to IANS Farooqui said: "The VC is joking. Instead of 
            agreeing to our one point demand to remove the proctor from his 
            present post because he has failed miserably... the vice chancellor 
            is only further compounding the issue." 
             
            Azis appealed to the students' union to unlock the administrative 
            block comprising the finance office, controller of examinations and 
            admissions office and all other administrative offices of the 
            university and the proctor's Office so that the inconvenience caused 
            to students and other stake holders could be avoided. 
             
            The VC held a review meeting of deans of faculties and principals of 
            colleges to take stock of the alarming situation.  
             
            The meeting appointed a committee of deans and principals, who are 
            members of the executive council, to interact with the office 
            bearers of the students' union and others.
