Activists of the Student Federation of India (SFI) and Democratic Youth Federation of India (FYFI) on Thursday staged a demonstration at the main gate of Andhra Loyola College (ALC), Vijayawada, demanding that the management allow the degree final year students, who were barred from writing their sixth semester examinations, to take the test.
SFI’s NTR district president M. Someswara Rao and secretary Ch. Venkateswara Rao denounced the management’s attitude towards the parents of the students who were being “harassed”.
DYFI district secretary N. Nageswara Rao said even in the past, the college had detained more than 150 students and allowed them to write the examinations only after the intervention of the student organisations who staged a protest and brought pressure on the management.
