BENGALURU/ NEW DELHI - One of India’s most famous universities is half-empty and some students who are on campus track each other on mobile devices to ensure people are safe, as violent clashes spill on to campuses that are seen as a hotbed of anti-government protests.
“I don’t think I can ever feel completely safe, either in the girls’ hostel or on campus,” said Nayla Khwaja, a student at New Delhi’s renowned Jamia Millia Islamia university. Beyond the capital, protests have also erupted in colleges in Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kolkata and Chennai. Students have taken to sharing live locations on WhatsApp with friends when attending a protest or going to class so they know who is where, a dozen students enrolled in universities in Delhi, Bengaluru and Kolkata told Reuters.
It came months after the government withdrew the special status of Muslim-majority Kashmir and also after the country’s top court ruled in favor of Hindus in a decades-old dispute over a place of worship that the ruling party has long campaigned for.

Not sure what they are protesting for. They are a bunch of lost kids thinking breaking windows and burning mannequins is ‘political activism’. What an abuse of democracy!
