Hunger Strike in Delhi

May 22
Scores of anti-quota protestors have begun an indefinite hunger strike in the national capital accusing the government of circumventing the Supreme Court order on OBC quota.
Around 100 activists, under the aegis of ''Youth for Equality'', started their hunger strike at the Maulana Azad Medical College in New Delhi at 12:00 pm.
Protestors were alleging that the government was trying to circumvent the Supreme Court ruling by extending quota benefit to post graduate courses.
''We want the government to implement the quota order in its true spirit,'' an activist said.
The Supreme Court had on April 10 upheld the controversial law providing 27 per cent quota for OBCs in IITs, IIMs and other central educational institutions but excluded the ''creamy layer'' from its ambit.
