Heavy tension gripped Odisha Assembly premises in Bhubaneswar this morning as large groups protested over a college student's self-immolation incident. Demonstrators, including political party workers and students, gathered demanding accountability and action against alleged administrative negligence linked to the case. The protest turned intense as police resorted to tear gas shells and water cannons to disperse the agitated crowd, leading to scuffles and injuries. Traffic disruptions and heavy police deployment were reported around Bidhan Sabha. The state government has yet to issue an official statement on the incident fueling the protests. (PC: India Today)
