Meanwhile, the students on Monday organised a convention inside the campus, where the alumni of Presidency University have joined hands and supported the students in their agitation.
On 27 August students submitted in writing to the university authorities stating that they were not going to listen to the members of the committee unless they publish a white paper on the reason behind so many teachers and officials leaving Presidency University. They had also demanded the relieving letters of the professors who are associated with the university but still drawing salaries from state government colleges.

They also demanded that the university authorities should issue a statement as to why the students were assaulted by the police on 21 August when the chief minister was invited to the convocation ceremony.
