Himachal Pradesh University students hold protest over fee increase
The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) and the Students' Federation of India (SFI) have launched protests against the recent hike in fees at Himachal Pradesh University implemented by the Congress-led state administration. Kunal Gangta, an ABVP leader, stated that the university's move to raise fees by approximately 20-25% is not acceptable. Chief Minister Sukhvinder Sukhu remarked, "Fees haven't been raised for quite some time, but any increase must be genuine."
