There have been strikes and protests everywhere in various parts of India. Reasons are two decisions that have not accepted by the citizens of India- The Amendment of CAA and the fee hike drama in universities in the country.

The fee hike yarn in Jawahar Lal University or JNU on November 11 and later the rollback step taken by the administration to calm down the students didn’t work well. The beating of a visually-impaired student added fuel to the fire. It has been 30 days, the shouting of slogans, dharnas and raising banners is in full-on mode. They confronted the police, broke the barricades and vandalized the statue of Vivekananda which was placed on the campus. They are not even ready to listen to anything except the cancellation of hikes. They even called the recommendations made by authorities as an insult to the education system.

JNU students have been protesting against changes in hostel manuals for the last three weeks Students room rent increased from Rs 10 to Rs 300 and the mess security fees was increased to Rs. 12 thousand.
