Protests at IIT Delhi have entered a fifth day, with parts of the campus cordoned off, following the death of 31-year-old MSc Physics student Rishikesh Kumar on August 22.
Students allege institutional and academic pressure including issues over hostel accommodation and exclusion from projects contributed to his death, and are demanding an independent investigation, compensation for his family, and resignations of senior student-affairs officials.
IIT Delhi has ordered an external inquiry and denied any premature conclusion on institutional responsibility. The Indian Express brings you a ground report.
