The students of Rajshahi University on Wednesday locked the main gate of its administrative building in continuance of their movement for opening the Teachers -Students Cultural Centre.
At about noon around 200 students and cultural activists brought out a procession that marched through the campus to end in front of the administrative building, where they staged street dramas and songs and later locked its gate.
Witnesses said that vice-chancellor Abdus Sobhan went to the spot with the proctorial body and pressurised the agitators to withdraw the movement.
The VC also threatened to take punitive action against the agitators and got them mass arrested, they said.
They also blamed the RU syndicate for their failure to reach any concrete decision about opening the TSCC at its June 27th meeting.
