On May 14, 2026, students at the National Law School of India University (NLSIU) protested against Vice-Chancellor Sudhir Krishnaswamy, demanding improvements in facilities such as water supply and hostel accommodations. The protests included the display of posters with slogans like “Sudhir, Sudhar Lao” and “Equal Fee, Equal Rooms.” Approximately 60 students marched to the Vice-Chancellor's office, seeking a response to their demands within 24 hours. The protests were a continuation of agitation from the previous day, where students raised concerns about water shortages and power cuts. Although the Vice-Chancellor initially agreed to meet a group of female students, they insisted on an open meeting, which he later accommodated. However, when he arrived, he stated he would only listen and not answer questions, leading to frustration among students who wanted a timeline for addressing their issues. The Vice-Chancellor mentioned that a response would take seven to ten days, which students opposed, especially with hostel preference forms closing on May 17. The university administration did not provide comments on the situation.
