2017 Delhi University protests
The 2017 Delhi University protests were a series of demonstrations that took place primarily in September 2017 at the University of Delhi, India. The protests were catalyzed by the controversial presence of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) member and Delhi's Chief Minister, Arvind Kejriwal, who was accused of politicizing campus issues. Students, along with various student organizations, mobilized against perceived administrative failures regarding student safety, fee hikes, and the imposition of stringent regulations. The protests underscored broader issues of academic freedom and the role of political influence within educational institutions. These events garnered significant media attention, highlighting the challenges faced by students in asserting their rights and advocating for reform in India's higher education landscape.
