EFLU Student Leaders Detained During Protest Against RSS Leader's Campus Talk
Twelve student leaders from English and Foreign Languages University (EFLU) were detained by Osmania University police on September 30 while protesting a campus talk by Telangana RSS leader Lingam Sridhar. The event, organized by the Bhagat Singh Youth Club under the banner 'Yuva Sankalp: Empowering Youth for Nation Building,' proceeded despite protests from student groups including the Fraternity Movement and NSUI. Protesters criticized the university administration for permitting the RSS-linked event while reportedly denying permission for programs by academicians and activists, alleging efforts to saffronize education.
