NSUI Leaders End Water Tank Protest Following Assurances on Student Elections
Three NSUI leaders in Jaipur protested atop a water tank for nearly 38 hours demanding the restoration of student union elections, initiating an indefinite hunger strike. Their protest ended after Congress leaders assured the issue would be raised in the appropriate forum. Meanwhile, student leader Lakshyaraj Singh was arrested to prevent a 'Bhumi Samadhi' protest at Rajasthan University. The NSUI has been actively agitating since the suspension of student elections by the previous Congress-led government in 2022.
