Students Demand Accountability and Transparency from TISS Administration
The Removal of Pro-VC Must be Addressed to Secure the Reputation of the Institute
<PSF Statement in Light of Recent News about the Removal of the Pro-VC>
Break Israel’s illegal and inhumane blockade of the Gaza Strip, which deprives Palestinians of health, safety, security, forces them into starvation and has created a humanitarian crisis! Stand with the courageous activists aboard the Madleen. #AllEyesOnMadleen#FreePalestine
Students unite in demanding the immediate & unconditional release of each crew member and the sanctioning of Israel by every country whose citizen was abducted. History bears witness to the attack of a ship whose only purpose was the delivery of life-saving aid! #AllEyesOnMadleen
Leaders might be silent, but the people are not! The Freedom Flotilla were on their way to break the siege and create a humanitarian corridor for aid to cross into Palestine. The Madleen has EVERY right for free passage in international waters!
