On Monday, the Students' Union at the University of Hyderabad (UoH) staged a protest demanding the revocation of suspensions and fines levied on students involved in a May demonstration.

The agitation was held in front of the university's Administration Block, following orders from the union. Students have called for the withdrawal of disciplinary actions against peers who took part in a protest over the postponement of the 'Sukoon-2024' festival.

Earlier, UoH administration had suspended five students, including the union president, and fined five others Rs 10,000 each. This disciplinary action followed a protest at the Vice-Chancellor's residence. In communication, the university clarified that the festival clashed with the Model Code of Conduct for elections.

The university informed that the Students' Union's plea would be discussed in an Executive Council meeting set for June 28.
