After nearly two months of peaceful protest following a student's death, IIT Bombay students have finally called it off.
The decision came after Director Shireesh Kedare promised more accountability and open communication in an email to the students.
Protesters also had most of their confiscated belongings, including laptops, returned.

In response, IIT Bombay is rolling out new steps like better grievance redressal, hiring professional counselors, launching a well-being app, and improving hostel life.
Faculty will also get sensitization training.
But the late student's parents aren't satisfied: they're still pushing for a fair inquiry and plan to continue their protest at the campus gate from November 23, possibly moving to the chief minister's residence if needed.
