The Jawaharlal Nehru University Teachers' Association (JNUTA) on Saturday called "satyagrah" protest against the administration's removal of seven Chairpersons and a Dean. JNUTA said they would go on a fast and a three-day strike from Monday if the decision is not revoked.
"The decision to remove seven Chairpersons and Deans for not complying with or refusing to implement the recent attendance system is illegal. The teachers will go for three days strike from Monday and will also begin a hunger strike," said JNUTA Secretary Sudhir Kumar Suthar. JNU Students Union (JNUSU) showed solidarity to sacked chairpersons and deans and marched with teachers holding a protest march from Ganga Dhaba to Sabarmati Dhaba via the Chandrabhaga hostel.
