The students of Panjab University continued to protest on Monday even after the Education ministry rescinded the order to restructure the university's senate and syndicate, its two governing bodies. The Chandigarh UT Police used canes to control the protesting students and others who joined the demonstrations.

The student demanded a poll schedule after the centre withdrew its earlier notification ordering the reconstitution and recomposition of the University’s two governing bodies on November 7.
