Tribal students are protesting for several weeks. A key factor in the intensified agitation is government resolutions issued in early August. These resolutions concern residential schools and hostels for tribal students. The protesters have various demands, including changes to scholarship rules and improved facilities.

The health of a protester has deteriorated due to a hunger strike. Further details about the protest and its participants are available. The issues at stake include living conditions and safety in residential schools.

Protesters are seeking changes to several policies, and some are calling for a minister's resignation. The situation has been ongoing for some time, with students taking to the streets to make their demands heard.
