Uppinangady: The protest of the students at the Ramakunjeshwara First Grade College at Ramakunja near Uppinangady demanding permission for students with head scarves into the college,  has come to a halt after majority of the agitating students returning to classes after a 12 day long strike. Only a handful of students were protesting on the 12^th day.

Meanwhile, the principal  of the college has lodged police complaints against a few students for resorting to protest after several students from various colleges laid siege to the Ramakunja college in support of the agitating students.

Though the students were initially firm in their demand to permit the girls to enter the classes wearing hijab, the management too was adamant on its stand and said that it cannot amend rules to suit a few.
