Teachers and staff also joined the protest, disrupting traffic at one of North Bengal’s key entry points.The sit-in protest lasted over two hours, creating severe traffic issues in the region.
Participants from Rabindra University were later joined in solidarity by members of Jamaat-e-Islami and the National Citizen Party (NCP).
Protesters eventually called off the blockade after issuing a 48-hour ultimatum to the authorities.
