Thiruvananthapuram (Kerala) [India], July 15 (ANI): Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) and BJP youth wing (BJYM) members on Monday protested against the attack on an SFI activist allegedly by his fellow activists at University College here.
The activists raised slogans against the police and demanded justice for the victim. The police had to resort to using water cannons to disperse the protesters.
On Sunday, the police issued lookout notices against eight members of Student Federation of India (SFI) who have been accused of attempting to murder Akhil, a third year BA student.

Four people have been arrested in the case so far.
