New Delhi: Delhi University Vice Chancellor Deepak Pental made it clear that talks could not take place until the agitation ends with the continuing their sit-in protest against implementation of the semester system.

“The VC has given time for Tuesday. However, the letter says he would meet only when the sit-in ends. Members will discuss it and take a decision,” said Delhi University Teacher’s Association member Sanjay Kumar, adding that the agitating teachers are yet to take a final decision on the issue.

The 19 members are staging a sit-in in the academic council hall at the VC’s office in the north campus for the past five days.

In a special meeting last Thursday, the council approved the courses to be implemented from the 2010-2011 session. Stating that the decision was imposed upon them, these 19 members refused to leave the hall.
