Several students in the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) on Friday boycotted their regular classes in order to demand for campus democracy and the right to live with dignity in the varsity.

The move came from JNU Students’ Union (JNUSU) that demanded the immediate release of election notification for the student’s body and opening of Barack hospital.
