Hyderabad Student Protest: Fee Dues Lead to Clashes
In Hyderabad, students protested to get their unpaid fees and scholarships.
They say the government owes them over eight thousand crore rupees, which is stopping them from going to school and getting their certificates.
The student group, SFI, organized the protest, but the police showed up, and there were clashes.
Some students were arrested and injured, while the students are still requesting that their pending fees be paid.
