India: Campaign for the revival of students' union

NEW DELHI, India: In a bid to restore the students' union of Jamia Millia Islamia, the Forum for Student Democracy has filed a Right to Information (RTI) petition in Jamia. The petition questions Jamia about why the elections for the union are not taking place and requests the university to furnish the financial details of the union. Interestingly, students are charged Rs. 50/- each as the student union fees whereas there has been no student union for the past few years.
