Students to protest against establishment of private universities

Greek students are expected to march in several cities on Thursday over their disagreement with a government plan to establish private universities in the country. 

In Athens, protesters are gathering at the Propylaia where the march will start later in the day.

Traffic police said it had closed Panepistimiou Street while more streets around the central Syntama square will follow.
