SFI Celebrates 56th Foundation Day, Vows to Resist Education Commercialisation

The Students’ Federation of India (SFI) celebrated its 56th Foundation Day in Hyderabad.

The leaders talked about the importance of the organisation's principles of independence, democracy, and socialism.

They also remembered the 277 student martyrs who died fighting for education rights.

The SFI criticised the National Education Policy (NEP-2020) and a proposed bill called the Vikasit Bharat Shiksha Adhishthan Bill 2025.

They said these policies could make education less democratic and take away the rights of state governments.

The SFI promised to fight for the right to education and employment for all students, especially those from marginalised communities like Dalits, tribals, and unemployed youth.
