We handed over the petition to registrar of VT Mr. Shivananda. Of course we are planning to meet him here in Bangalore. Well as the great quote goes “First they laugh at you, then they neglect you, then they fight you and then you win”. We will keep putting our views in front of him.

Next steps:
(1) Keep the petition alive.
(2) Meet VC at Bangalore.
(3) Start FLOSS awareness at colleges.

D has such a big bag that I had to tie that bag to the side of the bike. After reaching Krishnagiri we are supposed to take a left turn. Vinay went ahead. We had wait and call him so that he could come back.
