The Muslim Youth League (MYL) will launch an agitation demanding additional higher secondary batches to address the shortage of seats in Malabar.
MYL district committee decided on Saturday that protests would be organised in 16 centres across the district in the last week of the month. A protest march will be taken out to the District Collectorate in the first week of June.
MYL leaders alleged that the Left Democratic Front government was showing blatant bias towards the Malabar region. They said Education Minister V. Sivankutty’s decision to allow 70 students in one class as part of addressing the Plus One seat shortage would amount to challenging the students of Malabar.
