Mangaluru: Condemning the government’s inability to grant pre-matric, post-matric scholarships to the students, members of the Campus Front of India held a ‘Minority Bhavan Chalo’ protest in front of Maulana Azad Bhavan in Pandeshwar here in the city on Thursday.

As the police authorities did not give permission the protest a few protesters scaled the compound wall of Maulana Azad Bhavan. The police then immediately sent all the activists out of the campus. The activists then raised slogans against the government and called for immediate granting of scholarships to the students.

Campus Front of India state president Fayyaz Doddamane, District President Mohammed Sadiq, Media Cordinator Tajuddin, Hassan Siraj and others were present during the protest.
