In a separate incident, three students standing at a shop adjacent to the university campus were injured in an exchange of fire between two rival groups on Saturday, officials said. The injured students were admitted to the Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College and are stated to be out of danger, they said, adding it is still not clear whether or not the two incidents were connected.
On Sunday night, a group of students held a protest at Babey Sir Syed gate of the university, demanding severe punishment for those involved in the incident.
The protest was called off after senior university officials assured stringent action against the accused.

"Police are coordinating with AMU officials and collecting evidence against the culprits," he said, adding two FIRs have been lodged in the matter.
