JNU revokes rustication of five students, ending 17-day hunger strike

Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) has revoked the rustication of five students after a 17-day hunger strike by the students' union, following a directive from Vice-Chancellor Santishree Dhulipudi Pandit. The move resolves a domestic campus dispute but signals potential administrative concessions under sustained student pressure. The broader political implications for university governance in India remain uncertain.
