Nizam College Students Protest Hostel Mess Closure
Students at Nizam College are upset because the college shut down the mess, which provides meals.

They asked students to pay ₹3,000 to keep the mess open, but the students refused.
The students haven't had regular meals and are planning to protest.
They are also asking for help from the university and the government.
If they don't get help, they will go on a hunger strike to show how serious they are.

The college cited a financial crisis, with vendors stopping supplies due to unpaid bills.
