I have a friend at IIT Madras and he was able to provide some information regarding this. According to him, nothing is happening as such with DMK and AIADMK. Some of their volunteers come around the gate of IIT Madras and protest against an issue that was just produced by fake media.
After this, the police detain them to protect the students and protect those inside the campus.
After this, some irrelevant information is put out on Facebook. The media captures this and posts anything and everything on their website. While at IIT Madras, people make fun of all of these events.
