Addressing the students, Manjunath HS, President of the Students Union of the College urged for a fair investigation into the case. He also alleged that there was a breakdown of law and order machinery in the state. He suspected that some unscrupulous elements might have taken undue advantage of the innocence of Ratna. He further warned of a severe protest by the student community if the demand was not conceded to.

A minute’s silence was also observed in respect of the departed soul of Ratna. A memorandum was later submitted to the State Chief Minister and Home Minister through the Special Tahsildar.
