AMU Students Block Hospitalization of Hunger Striker Amid Union Election Protest
At Aligarh Muslim University, students protesting for the restoration of student union elections blocked authorities from hospitalizing hunger striker Yasser Fahad after his health worsened. Fahad, a postgraduate Urdu student, has been on hunger strike for 15 days. University officials said the medical intervention aimed to provide urgent care, not to end the strike, and assured Fahad could return to the protest once stabilized. Protesters demand election dates, citing loss of trust in the administration.
