The strike had begun on June 12 when the BJP MP was chosen to head the premier institute (FTII students on indefinite strike against new Chairman, June 12).
The outrage took a turn for worse in September when 3 students went on a hunger strike to convey their displeasure to the ruling party's indifferent attitude towards them (Narendra Modi and Arun Jaitley, what on earth is happening?, September 10).
