JNUSU ends 17-day strike after key demands secured

According to the students' union, the hunger strike was called off after the JNU administration on Monday agreed to several of its key demands and provided verbal assurances on others. "Due to the worsening health of the hunger strikers, JNUSU has decided to call off the hunger strike. However, our struggle is far from over. The mode of protest has changed but the fight for our demands continues with renewed determination," the JNUSU said in a statement.

The protest, which began on August 11 with 16 students sitting on an indefinite hunger strike, was concluded with only two participants remaining.
