Pune: The Film and Television Institute of India (FTII) students have on Sunday called off their 18- day-old “hunger strike” in response to the government’s communication inviting them for a dialogue to resolve their
demands.
The meeting is slated for September 29 in Mumbai.
The students had yesterday said they were ready to withdraw their hunger strike to pave the way for a dialogue if the Information and Broadcasting Ministry confirmed a date and venue for talks.
However, the general strike, that started on June 12 will continue till the issues raised by the Institute students are resolved.
A three-member delegation of the FSA will take part in the talks.
