At a press conference, the HCSA said it had staged a dharna for over three weeks and submitted a memorandum to the Delhi University Vice‑Chancellor and governing body. The association cited deviations from admission rules, delays in faculty leave and promotions, bypassing the Staff Council, financial and procurement irregularities, non‑disclosure of governing‑body minutes and audited accounts, and the naming of college buildings after corporate donors.
