Members of the Shivamogga district unit of the National Students Union of India (NSUI), a students' wing of the Congress party, hoisted the national flag on the Government First Grade College campus at Bapuji Nagar in Shivamogga on February 9 morning.
The State Government has declared a holiday for colleges for three days starting February 9 as protests against the hijab turned violent in many places, including Shivamogga, on February 8.
