Rohith Vemula: JNU students on indefinite hunger strike
The three students identified as Lenin Kumar, Shushree and Shubhanshu began their strike on Saturday night at the University's administrative block with a demand that the central government must grant aid to Rohit's family.
One of them said that as Rohith's Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) was the only income for his family, financial assistance for his family members must be provided by the central government.
