According to the union, it consistently maintained that the welfare and interests of students must remain paramount in every decision affecting their academic pursuits. “Despite our sustained efforts and several rounds of dialogue, the concerns of students remain unresolved. The Students’ Union believes that the prevailing economic realities make it increasingly difficult for many students and parents to bear additional financial burdens,” the statement read. The union consequently directed all students to remain at home on Monday and refrain from attending lectures or participating in any academic activities.
