It seems a meeting between officials of the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) and students of the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) has made the situation worse for the institute authorities. Soon after the meeting on Friday, MHRD secretary R Subrahmanyam told mid-day that every year the ministry releases a fund of Rs 50-60 crore for the institute and there has been no reduction in it. This has not only made the administration's stand questionable but has also made the students firmer on their stand of continuing with the protest till all their demands were met.
