A Madhya Pradesh minister said that the Governor stayed back for the programme beyond his schedule and completed the degree and medal presentation formalities.
Students of the Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) created ruckus on not getting an opportunity to receive their degrees personally from Madhya Pradesh Governor Mangu Bhai Patel because of time constraint during the convocation ceremony on Wednesday, leading the latter to stay back and hand over the degrees.
Eyewitnesses said after the ruckus, the Governor, who is also the chancellor of state universities, changed his programme and handed over the degrees and medals to all eligible students.
Madhya Pradesh higher education minister Mohan Yadav, who attended the ceremony, later told reporters, "There is a time limit in a programme of the Governor. The number of students who were supposed to get their degrees was on a higher side.”
Mr Yadav said that on his request, Mr Patel agreed to stay back for the programme beyond his original schedule and complete the degree and medal presentation formalities.
