IIIT Allahabad Closed Sine Die

Some sad news from our neighborhood.
As per the ToI Report, a student of IIIT Allahabad was run over by the Institute's bus.

Students have set up a blog in protest. Here is the link to Students' Appeal.

The Institute has been closed sine die. Here is the ToI Report on this.

I must also add that I did not find any mention of either the accident or the Institute closure on the Institute website, though friends in IIIT have confirmed the news.
