The student leader has been demanding restoration of students’ union elections “so that the youth get an opportunity to come forward in politics”, and for the setting up of a department for Rajasthani language at the university. (X/@GovindDotasra)Student leader Shubham Rewar, who had been on a hunger strike at Rajasthan University, was forcibly removed by police on Thursday. The 26-year-old has been demanding restoration of students’ union elections “so that the youth get an opportunity to come forward in politics”, and for the setting up of a department for Rajasthani language at the university. They are constantly pressuring me to break my hunger strike through drip. But I have said in writing that my hunger strike will continue till the student elections are restored in the state and a Rajasthani department is set up in the university.”
