Student Activists Face Charges in Protest Against Kerala University Vice-Chancellor

A case has been registered against the SFI state president and other activists for allegedly blocking and attacking Kerala University's Vice-Chancellor Mohanan Kunnummal's vehicle. The protest, aimed at demanding his removal, led to the vice-chancellor being stuck in his car before police intervention.

Police have filed charges against prominent members of the Students’ Federation of India (SFI) for allegedly obstructing Kerala University Vice-Chancellor Mohanan Kunnummal and damaging his vehicle during a protest.

The incident led to the registration of a case against SFI state president Siva Prasad and several other activists, who allegedly intercepted Kunnummal's car in a demonstration demanding the vice-chancellor's removal.

Protestors who had blockaded his car were eventually dispersed by police. The charges were filed under various local legal statutes, following a formal complaint from the Kerala University Registrar.
