No further explanation was provided.<br \/>\nWe responded immediately by submitting an application to continue allowing us the passage because our area, situated in the north-east<br \/>\npart of the campus, is completely surrounded by mountains and deep gorges from every side and unlike the rest of the adjoining areas, there is no other alternate road for us to communicate with the<br \/>\noutside world.<br \/>\nOn 27th April 2020, when the nation was battling and suffering under the global pandemic crisis, the RGU authority has committed the arbitrary and inhumane act of putting us under double lockdown by closing our only access road and imprisoning and rendering us helpless from even getting our essential commodities and attending to emergency<br \/>\nhealth issues.<br \/>\nSeveral government staffs, and university, college and school going students are also residing in the area. When the lockdown is lifted, the road blockade will deter them from attending their respective work and classes.<br \/>\nIn the present times, when the government is extending effort at reaching to its every citizen of even the remotest part of the region by constructing roads and carrying out developmental works, the<br \/>\npremier institution of the state like RGU is shunning the state\u2019s innocent and law abiding people from human progress and development.<br \/>\nTherefore, I am writing this letter in a hope that the government, concerned authorities and every right thinking people will not allow such unjust perpetration, and deprive us of even a basic dignified living.<br \/>\nP.S.
