DU student, protesting against 39-storey building in campus, calls off hunger strike

A Delhi University student, who was on a hunger strike against the construction of a 39-storey building inside the varsity's North Campus, called off his fast on Friday after his health deteriorated. Raja Chaudhary, a law student, had been on an indefinite hunger strike since Sunday against the residential building. On Friday, doctors said his condition could deteriorate further if he did not end his strike.
Following persuasion by teachers, he ended the hunger strike.
