Two Government Law College students here were injured when two groups of students clashed today in the campus.
One student had been hospitalised while the other treated as outpatient for minor injuries, police said.
The clash broke out when some senior students allegedly attacked their juniors using clubs and sickles for going on a dharna without consulting them over transfer of three students to another college recently, police said.
The college had remained closed for the last 10 days following the sit-in-dharna by the junior students, who withdrew it last evening after the college authorities revoked the transfer of the three, they said.
When classes resumed this morning, the senior students attacked some juniors, resulting in the clash despite depolyment of police in anticipation of trouble.
