New Delhi
The President of Jawaharlal Nehru University Students Union (JNUSU), Aishe Ghosh, has condemned the Modi government’s move of revoking
Kashmir’s special status and dividing it into two union territories. Aishe Ghosh joined the students protest at Jamia Millia Islamia Delhi where she addressed the protesters.
During her speech, she said, ‘We should not forget Kashmir in our fight.’ She said, ‘Whatever is happening with them (Kashmiris) is connected with government’s intent to take away Constitution from us.’
The Nagaland University Students’ Union (Lumami) has condemned the ‘heinous attack’ on students and teachers of Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) by ‘ABVP hooligans’. In a press release issued on Sunday, the union expressed sadness at the turn of events that has now transformed the JNU into a ‘bleeding war zone’. ‘At this point of vexatious situation, it is very much evident that it is no longer a simple issue of fee hike but of political motive, as evident from the politically driven mob attacks by the goons and police personnel themselves. Whereby, the students, specifically the president of JNUSU, Asihe Ghosh, were brutally beaten and several students are currently in critical condition. It is a shame for the ABVP to even claim themselves as a students’ council body because of their horrific actions towards teachers and fellow students,’ it stated.
The union further expressed astonishment at what it stated was the incompetence and cowardice of the police personnel to intervene and provide security.—KMS
