Govindan Backs Sanskrit University Protest, Says Agitation Should Continue Until Suspended Students Sit Exams
Communist Party of India (Marxist) leader M. V. Govindan has thrown his weight behind the protest at Sanskrit University, saying the agitation should continue until the suspended students are allowed to write their examinations. The dispute follows the suspension of 16 students after a Students' Federation of India-led protest during a syndicate meeting on August 13 over inadequate campus facilities.
