JNU Hostel Fee Hike Protest Police student clash timeline 

It's been more than a week that, JNU students have been protesting over hostel fee hike and others issues. They have also clashed with the police and paramilitary forces that have been deployed outside the campus. 

To get the students under control, policemen hit the students with batons and used water cannons on the mob that was trying to meet the vice-chancellor over the issue.

According to ANI reports, the hostel fee was revised for the first time in 19 years which was not acceptable to students. 

Taking a look at the new hostel charges, single room rent has been increased from Rs 20 to Rs 600 per month, double sharing room hiked from Rs 10 to Rs 300. Also, the service charge has been Rs 1700/- per month. This totally angered the students and led to protest.

Earlier in the day, a massive protest broke outside when students blocked the roads near the campus and raised slogans. 

Vice President, Venkaiah Naidu and HRD Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal were there to attend the 3rd convocation at JNU. After the event, the students blocked the gates of the University and did not allow HRD Minister to leave until their demands were sorted.
