EFLU students protest over reopening of hostels and library, detained

Students of English and Foreign Languages University (EFLU), who staged a ‘silent protest’ in front of the campus gate demanding the administration to reopen the hostels, were detained by the Osmania University police here on Sunday evening.

The students said that their career would be at stake if the administration did not give access to hostels, the library, and internet for online classes. “We sat on a peaceful, 24-hour hunger strike that was started at 12 noon requesting the administration to open the hostels and provide students with access to educational resources and internet facilities necessary for the completion of courses,” one of the protesting students told The Hindu.
