NIT Silchar Suicide Case: Dr. NV Deshpande (Ex-Director) who in a WhatsApp group wrote that Koj Buker’s suicide was because of the Authorities - was SHUN DOWN.
This is where the idea of free speech vanishes. When it’s in the Education System, where else it won’t be in?

Some have fainted due to their unwavering determination for justice. Yet, the administration remains unmoved, seemingly deaf to their pleas and unresponsive to their demands. The strength and resolve of these students shine, even in the face of such adversity. #JUSTICE4KOJ
