NSUI chief Roji John said: “They thanked him (Rahul) for his continuous support. He not only supported the students at JNU, but also FTII and IIT Madras, where students have been protesting against the way government is attacking institutions. We will continue this fight to protect autonomy of institutions,” John said.
