Amid continuing protests by several students and teachers against FYUP, University Grants Commission had yesterday sent a formal letter to DU asking it to review the programme as per its decision on June 13.
"The letter (from the UGC) has been received. The university will reply in due course," DU's media coordinator Malay Neerav said.
