Summary

Four students were injured during clashes between police and student protesters at the Central University of Kerala in Kasaragod on October 6, 2026, during a protest against a national seminar marking the 150th anniversary of Vande Mataram. The seminar featured J. Nandakumar, national convenor of Prajna Pravah, an RSS-linked organization. Multiple student unions including SFI, NSUI, MSF, and AISF organized the protest, alleging the event advanced a 'saffronisation agenda.' Students claimed they were denied entry despite registering beforehand and alleged police used force against them, tearing clothes during the confrontation. Police and the university denied allegations of assault. Despite the protests and threats to block his entry, Nandakumar attended and spoke at the inaugural session. Some SFI leaders were taken away by police during the incident. Former Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan condemned the police action.
