ABVP on mass protest

HYDERABAD: Protesting against the government’s failure to contain corporate colleges despite several unfortunate incidents, the Akhila Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) staged a massive demonstration in front of the Board of Intermediate Education (BIE) here on Tuesday.

Thousands of students gathered in front of the BIE and raised slogans against the government and corporate colleges like Sri Chaitanya and Narayana.

City ABVP secretary, T. Ramakrishna said that the officials were in hand in glove with the corporate colleges that were “destroying” the future of students with their extreme teaching methods.
