Jamia Millia Islamia Protests Continue as University Extends Online Classes and Exam Schedule
Jamia Millia Islamia students have been protesting since October 12, demanding the restoration of the students' union and a clear election timeline, as no elections have been held since 2006. The university has extended online classes until November 24 and shifted end-semester exams online, citing safety concerns amid allegations of vandalism and campus unrest. Two NSUI members were detained, and the administration formed a seven-member committee to address student demands. Students continue their agitation, including hunger strikes, while the university considers hostel closures and disciplinary actions.
