The All-India Students Federation (AISF) will gherao Parliament House on November 14 in protest against “commercialisation of education” in the country.
A member of the National Council of the AISF and the convener of the Haryana state unit of the AISF, Roshan Suchan, here today said students from all over the country would participate in the protest.
Suchan alleged that the central government and governments of various states had taken steps towards privatising education in the recent past and big business sharks had taken control of the education business.
“Corporate houses, liquor mafia and all other unscrupulous elements in collusion with political parties in power have opened shops to fleece poor students,” the AISF leader alleged.
He alleged that it was a conspiracy to allow capitalists to swell their coffers at the cost of poor masses. “Some of those foreign universities that have been operating in India have either been banned or are unrecognised in their own countries,” Suchan alleged.
