The students of different departments participated in the cultural function organised by ‘Chintak’ on the university’s “Vaskharya Chattar” premises, reports UNB.
The programme was organised under the initiative of ‘Chintak’, a quarterly periodical published by the students of the university.
In the event, the tragic pictures of torture of the Palestinians were put up before the participants through revolutionary speeches, protest songs and poems.
