Mumbai: IIT Bombay alumnus and activist Sudheendra Kulkarni on Tuesday urged withdrawal of the SC/ST Act case against Professor Suryanarayana Doolla, claiming the law has been widely misused and calling for a national debate on its reform.
Higher education institutions, including IITs, must continually improve campus life to ease student stress, he said, adding that coaching and peer‑support initiatives are needed for students from marginalised communities.
