Thiruvananthapuram Mayor Arya Rajendran has taken up cudgels for the students of the College of Engineering Thiruvananthapuram (CET) who protested against the alleged moral policing by local residents who cut a steel bench into three at a bus shelter frequented by the students.
Ms. Rajendran, who visited the waiting area at Sreekaryam on Thursday, lashed out at attempts to impede the freedom of the student community and impose conservatism on youngsters.
