Madikeri / Hassan: The State Government’s move to close nine Universities including Kodagu University citing a lack of funding triggered protests from the Akhila Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) and Kodagu BJP workers. Yesterday, they organised a 16-km padayatra from the Kodagu University campus at Chikka Aluvara to Kushalnagar.
Led by former MLA M.P. Appachu Ranjan, MLC Suja Kushalappa and former BJP District President B.B. Bharateesh, hundreds of students and BJP workers participated in the march, voicing strong opposition to the Government’s decision.
