We didn't get that and on Saturday we were told that the hall was not meant for such screenings," said Sayan Chakraborty, a student of PU's economics department.However, PU officials said that the students were stopped from screening the documentary as they didn't have proper permission.Chakraborty said that the auditorium has been used for screening various films in the past. The students will discuss the matter with the university administration on Tuesday, he said."We will try to get permission. If denied, we will go for open screening.
