Chaos descended on the Kerala Veterinary and Animal Sciences University (KVASU) headquarters at Pookode in the district on March 4 with the Kerala Students’ Union (KSU) activists clashing with the police at the entrance of the university.
The violence unfolded when KSU workers marched to the university headquarters raising a slew of demands, including handing over the case in connection with the death of J.S. Sidharthan, a second-year Bachelor of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry student, to Central agencies for an impartial investigation.
