Law College students boycott classes on IIT-Madras row

Madurai, Jun 2: Students of Law College boycotted their classes for the second day today protesting against the de-recognition of an IIT-Madras students' body allegedly for being critical of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

They also blocked the road in front of the district court here and termed the de-recognition of Ambedkar Periar Study Circle at IIT, Madras, as an "attack on the freedom of expression".

The students also demanded that the de-recognition be rolled back immediately.

The traffic on the busy road was affected for more than one hour.
