Eight students of the Delhi University's Delhi School of Journalism were today suspended for allegedly "disrupting classes" while students claimed that they were protesting for their demands.

Around 100 students have been protesting since yesterday against the lack of facilities in the college despite the college charging over Rs 60,000 annual fees, said one of the students.

Eight students of the Delhi School of Journalism were suspended for allegedly "disrupting classes" and "obstructing official work", said an official from the college.

Sources claimed that later, the students' suspension was revoked following student protests.

One of the students, who was suspended, said, "We have been staying in the college since yesterday because despite paying high fees, they (the institute authorities) do not even have functional computers inside the college. We want to meet the DU vice-chancellor to express our concerns but we are not being helped."
