SFI plans agitation

Staff Reporter

KANNUR: Terming the High Court Division Bench's judgment revoking certain key sections in the Kerala Professional Colleges Act "a verdict against the collective will of the people in the State," the Students Federation of India (SFI) State leaders have warned of an intense agitation on the issue.

SFI State secretary M. Swaraj and president P. Sindhu Joy said at a press conference here on Thursday that the SFI would organise student marches to the High Court and 13 district courts on January 15 to protest against the judgment, which, they alleged, favoured commercial interests in the education sector.

Mr. Swaraj said the SFI wanted the State Government to appeal against the judgment.
