After 21 days of protest at Azad Maidan, the parents of Sahil Wakode, who was found dead in his hostel room at IIT Bombay’s Powai campus last month, now intend to shift their agitation to the institute, demanding answers and accountability over his death.
Speaking to the media on Tuesday, Sahil’s father, Ravindra Wakode, said he and his wife, Sonali, had received no response from the authorities despite writing to them. He has now sought the chief minister’s intervention and said the family plans to protest at IIT Bombay.
