Jamia Millia Islamia moves classes online amid row over slogans raised at protest
Students of Delhi's Jamia Millia Islamia began the protest demanding restoration of students' union on October 12.
Jamia Millia Islamia university in Delhi has shifted its classes online following a dispute over slogans that were reportedly raised during a protest. The protest, which began on October 12, was sparked by a hunger strike led by five students, though Congress leader Imran Masood, who visited the campus, stated that no such slogans were uttered.
Masood strongly condemned the suggestion of "free Kashmir" chants, affirming that Kashmir is an integral part of India. The university's student union, which had been dissolved in March 2006, is currently under protest, with demands for the restoration of the students' union and the removal of the chief proctor for allegedly cracking down on demonstrators.
