Protests at AMU's women's college intensified on Thursday with hundreds of students blocking its entry points as the exam boycott at the university's engineering college continued for the fourth successive day.
The protesters, including schoolgirls, have locked the gates from inside and have formed a human chain to prevent teaching staff from entering the college campus at Marris Road.
A university official said police had been posted at the college gates as a precautionary measure.
He added, "While a section of the girls are ready to end the deadlock and resume attending classes, some others are still refusing."
Beg expressed optimism that the problems would be resolved "after discussing the matter with senior university officials on Thursday."
