Students rally, calling for the release of their colleagues and freedom of expression.

Egyptian university students from all political movements and leanings have called for the amendment of the Constitution with regards to the banning of political activities within universities’ campuses. The students called for ending the violations of freedom of expression for all and not just for the chosen few appointed by universities administrations.

The NDP speakers spoke contradictory words to the leading party’s actions, where they called for youth to be involved in the country’s future with regards to preparing the youth to become potential leaders.
