Fee Hike: Memorandum submitted to VC

ABVP worker Harmanjot Singh Gill said the fee of students staying on a daily basis was already so high, and this move was not acceptable. The ABVP also announced that if the university would not accept their demands, it would launch a mass agitation against the authorities.
