A dramatic protest by students broke out on Monday outside the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) campus over several issues including the recent fee hike. The protest was organised by the JNU Students' Union.

During the protest, a scuffle broke out between the police and the protesting students as they moved towards the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), where Vice President Venkaiah Naidu was addressing the university's convocation at an auditorium.
