Information
The city police on Wednesday arrested about 80 students of a private law college from Salem who staged a protest in George Town demanding fee reduction.

The protest sparked a major traffic hold-up for most of the day, beginning with a stand off in the morning and going on well up to 8 p.m.

Students Federation of India (SFI) state secretary G. Selva said the students wanted the State Government direct the college management to adhere to the reservation norms during admissions. They also wanted the college to collect the fee fixed by the Government for students selected under the Government quota. Many students complained that the management demanded higher fees from students admitted under the management quota.
