Aligarh, Oct 27 (PTI) :AICC general secretary Rahul Gandhi has assured a delegation of AMU students that he will soon take up the issue of revival of their union with HRD minister Kapil Sibal. The assurance was given by Gandhi when the delegation met him yesterday to apprise him of its demand for restoration of the students' union among other issues. "Rahul has assured us that he will be taking up our matter for the revival of the AMU students' union with the HRD Minister very shortly," students' spokesman Mushtaq Ahmed said today. Protesting students are on relay hunger strike for about a fortnight now and have, for the past six days, squatted outside the Vice-Chancellor's residence, who has been confined to a government guest house. The students are also demanding removal of some top University officials responsible for rusticating some 150 students who had raised their voice against the administration. Meanwhile, in a statement, AMU Vice-Chancellor P K Abdul Azis urged the agitating students to withdraw the dharna and said the AMU Students Union will be restored by January 26, 2011.
