In a major development in the over 100-day-old students' agitation at TISS, a city civil court yesterday restrained them from holding any protest within 100 metres of the institute.

This means they will have to vacate the current protest site. TISS counsel advocate V K Wasnik told mid-day, "The court passed this order after I presented photographic and video-graphic proof of how there have been obstructive moments during the protest. There is evidence showing how the staff was not allowed to attend even nature's call."
