But he is very much active in the VC office and allegedly refused to accept the university order," said students.

"Now the game is in the court of VC as the district administration has defused the situation after an agreement was reached between the BGSBU administration and students and accordingly students had called off their strike," said SSP Mughal. "BGSBU administration should have sent the Registrar on leave for few days to cool down the situation but it seems university administration deliberately want to keep the pot boiling and it was also alleged by the students that after 2-3 days Mohd Rashid Chowdhry is going to attend a meeting at Srinagar as a Registrar of BGSBU," said a senior police officer.
