TISS student body asks to cancel ban
The Free Press Journal|August 24, 2024
Days after the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) banned the Progressive Students' Forum (PSF) on its campuses, the body has written to the institute's chancellor demanding revocation of the decision.

Calling the ban "a direct attack" on academic freedom and the constitutional right to freedom of association, assembly and free speech, PSF objected to the language used by the TISS administration in the office order announcing the ban. The letter also targets TISS officials for its various attempts to "stifle campus democracy".
