The sit-in protest organised by the Agriculture Student Association Punjab (ASAP) at Punjab Agricultural University (PAU), Ludhiana, demanding recruitment against vacant posts in agriculture and allied government departments, entered its 65th day today.
Marking the occasion, students held a march along Ferozepur Road from Gate No. 1 to Gate No. 2. Carrying placards, banners, and raising slogans, they voiced strong opposition to what they termed the state government’s indifferent attitude towards their demands.
