Summary

On October 3, 2026, authorities in Maharashtra denied Ravindra Wakode permission to continue his protest at Azad Maidan regarding the death of his son, Sahil Wakode, an IIT Bombay student who allegedly died by suicide. Following the denial, Wakode announced plans to visit the institute's Powai campus. The protest, which also involves a hunger strike by students, demands accountability from the administration and the arrest of IIT-B director Shireesh Kedare and Professor Suryanarayana Doolla. The family alleges that Sahil faced caste-based discrimination at the university. The Mumbai Crime Branch is currently investigating the case, and an FIR has been registered against Professor Doolla.
