Overview
- Students from the Instituto Politécnico Nacional have occupied Canal Once since the weekend after staging a plantón and briefly blocking both directions of Circuito Interior to press a multi‑point pliego petitorio.
- The students refuse to free the station until they receive concrete, written solutions and insist that higher‑level officials attend any negotiation and that any agreement be broadcast live from Canal Once.
- The Secretaría de Gobernación has invited an IPN commission, SEP and SEGOB to a mesa de diálogo scheduled for Wednesday, May 27 at Donceles 100 while SEP Secretary Mario Delgado visited sites and presented a 'primer borrador' reply that students rejected.
- Canal Once says it opened an internal investigation into an alleged assault on a student but will not disclose names of contract personnel for legal reasons, a point that fuels the students’ demand for public accountability.
- Students warn of a larger mobilization on June 11 if authorities do not meet their demands, a prospect that raises political pressure because the IPN represents a large national community and the issues include budget transparency, infrastructure and calls for the resignation of director general Arturo Reyes Sandoval.
