MSU Protests |
Local students in Vadodara continue to oppose the Maharaja Sayajirao University (MSU)’s decision to cut the local student quota from 70% to 50%.
With the determination that no student from Vadodara should be deprived of admission, the National Students' Union of India (NSUI) today, along with the students, organised the protest, hurling slogans outside the university head office.
While the security personnel created a cantonment-like barricading around the spot, the aggrieved students continued their agitation. Police personnel, dressed in civil dress, rounded up several students and detained them in a police van. This further agitated the students, who intensified their protest.
Notably, an announcement was made by the varsity to admit more students after a ‘Black Day’ was observed to protest this admission methodology.
However, the students are adamant about continuing their protests until all the students are admitted.
