May 06, 2016 19:15

JNU students union president Kanhaiya Kumar, who is on a hunger strike, was discharged from AIIMS after his health today improved even as the varsity administration asked students to not invite outsiders saying it might vitiate the academic atmosphere and peace on campus.

While five students yesterday withdrew their fast against the punishment by the university in connection with the February 9 event during which anti-national slogans were allegedly raised, 15 others continued with the hunger strike which entered ninth day today.

Kanhaiya, who is out on bail after his arrest in a sedition case, was yesterday admitted to AIIMS in a semi-conscious state. He was discharged today after treatment for mild dehydration and ketosis.
