New Year is not a concern as it will comeevery year but the main responsibility as a citizen is to save the state fromillegal immigrants and therefore, we are sitting here observing hunger strikerather than to enjoy the New Year's eve," said one of the agitating students.

The students union said that they won't accept the act in anycircumstances and will willingly sacrifice their lives but will not allow theAct to be implemented.
