Assuring them of his support, he said that the students have the right to demand jobs in MRPL or ONGC as they were promised when their land was being acquired. Stating that the state government has ignored many of his letters and proposals regarding the matter, the swamiji said that he is unwilling to pursue the matter further with the government. However, he urged the government to abort MSEZ in this region and to focus instead on the problems of farmers and attempt to eliminate the issue of unemployment. He also urged the government to provide unemployment allowances to the protestors till they get suitable jobs.


The Campus Front of India (CFI), district unit, had also expressed its support earlier on that day.


Around 200 PDF youth, who are waiting for the jobs promised to them and were trained in the Karnataka Polytechnic (KPT) for this purpose, are participating in the indefinite hunger strike.


186 youth have already completed the company’s training and 188 more are under training. A majority of them had discontinued their education because the company had promised them high-paying jobs if they undertook and passed the training.


The protestors are demanding the immediate recruitment of all the 186 candidates who have completed their training in ONGC or MRPL and a written assurance that jobs will be provided for the 188 who are under training. They have also demanded a compensation of Rs. 30 lakh for each candidate if the company cannot provide jobs.
