What's behind this
The High Court ruled that students who engage in dharna or hunger strikes in educational institutes can be expelled. The decision follows the suspension of 16 SFI activists at Sree Sankaracharya University of Sanskrit in Kerala on August 13, when they staged a protest that the university described as including a mock funeral for Vice‑Chancellor Ciza Thomas during the first meeting of the reconstituted Syndicate. The suspensions have led to a legal battle as the students seek to sit for upcoming exams, while university authorities defend their actions.
