Refusing to budge from their position until their demands are fulfilled, the agitating students challenged the authorities saying they are prepared for any eventuality.

The State government on Saturday evening had declared sine die in the school and on the premise of law and order situation asked the students to vacate their hostels within 24 hours after terming the strike by students as illegal.

But even after the deadline on Sunday evening, the striking students refused to vacate the hostel and continued their agitation more vigorously saying no amount of pressure from the government would now deter them from the strike.
