In a separate video, Sara Ismail commented that 271 students gathered from the last 2 batches to receive their medals and degrees. However, only gold medallists received their degrees on the convocation stage after the speeches of the Governor and the dignitaries.
DON'T MISS
Thereafter, the rest of students were asked to collect their degrees later from the university. Sara remarked that students then got angry and requested the university’s management to reconsider their request that they flatly refused. She also added that they later gave us degrees after students chanted slogans against the university.
Sara defended her verbal battle on stage saying it was an issue of respect for students as well as the parents.
Rajasthan Governor Haribhau Bagde who also happens to be the University’s Chancellor was the chief guest, while Rajasthan Deputy Chief Minister Prem Chand Bairwa was the guest of honour.
University Acts To Save Reputation
The university then decided to take corrective steps by requesting the Deputy CM to present the degrees to remaining students as the governor had already left by then.
It was remarked by students that they had spent a considerable amount on clothing as a special dress code was mandated for the convocation event. Also, they said their families were invited to celebrate an important milestone in their lives and the university should have communicated to them beforehand if it was planning to honour all students on the stage.
