JNU Students Begin Indefinite Hunger Strike Over Campus Facilities and AdmissionsPreviousNext

Since September 27, four Jawaharlal Nehru University students affiliated with the Progressive Students' Association have been on an indefinite hunger strike at Sabarmati T-Point. They demand hostel accommodation for all, renovation of hostels, improved library facilities, transparent PhD admissions, reinstatement of the GS CASH committee, revocation of JNUSU office bearers' suspension, and better campus infrastructure. Protesters report health issues and say the administration has only provided medical check-ups without engaging in dialogue. They vow to continue until their concerns are addressed.
