New Delhi:  A student of the prestigious Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) in Delhi was arrested for sedition over a controversial event held in support of Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru, who was hanged in 2013. Upset by the arrest and the heavy police presence on the campus, the faculty in a statement expressed concern about the "threat to democratic ethos.

 

Anti-India slogans were allegedly raised during the event titled "The country without a post office", which featured an exhibition and a protest march. The BJP's student wing ABVP and a party lawmaker reported the event to the police.

 

Home Minister Rajnath Singh warned of "stringent action" against the organisers of the protest. "Anyone who raises anti-India slogans or tries to put a question mark on nation's unity and integrity will not be spared," he said.

 

After Kanhaiya's arrest, teachers and students protested outside the Vice Chancellor's office, demanding to know why students were being treated like "terrorists" and picked up from campus by plainclothesmen. A rival group of students belonging to the ABVP protested near the India Gate in the heart of Delhi.

 

Last month, clashes between two student groups over a protest in support of Afzal Guru led to similar turmoil at the Hyderabad Central University.
