AISA Highlights Student Protests and Criticizes Karnataka Government's ActionsPreviousNext

The All India Students Association (AISA), led by national president Neha Bora, held events in Bengaluru and Mumbai highlighting student activism and education issues. Bora criticized the Congress government in Karnataka for filing FIRs against students protesting for the release of Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam, contrasting this with its solidarity for protests in Delhi. She emphasized a broader student movement addressing systemic issues like caste discrimination and education reforms, with cultural performances and speeches underscoring youth political engagement.
