The students union on Friday protested outside the office of the University Grants Commission (UGC ) against the commission's move to scrap non-National Eligibility Test (NET) fellowship.
Earlier, students from different universities protested against the decision of commission.
Students came from across universities including JNU, Delhi University, Jamia Millia Islamia University and Ambedkar University and joined the protest.
After several rounds of meetings with the UGC officials failed to reach a decision, they decided to "occupy UGC" till the decision is withdrawn.
