Any student found to be involved in promoting or campaigning openly or secretly on campus or in the dormitories, bringing in student politics, their practice, or holding political programs, or calling on others to do so, or supporting or taking part in promotion and campaign activities, will be subject to immediate disciplinary action, it added.

A prayer was said for the souls of those who died during the Anti-discrimination Student Movement. All the injured students would receive the proper treatment, they added.
