UNREST// A student of New Delhi’s Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), who is also the leader of its students union, has been arrested by the police and sent to jail. The police said that JNU student leader Kanhaiya Kumar was shouting slogans in support of Pakistan and against India. Ten days later, for having a view different from that of the government, he was still languishing in jail. On February 10, JNU students led by Kumar had organised an event to protest against the death punishment that was given to Parliament attacks convict Afzal Guru. Guru was found guilty of attacking the Parliament building in 2001. It was at this protest event that the slogans that were against India, but supported Pakistan, were said to have been shouted out by JNU students. The police arrested Kumar on the charges of sedition. JNU administration has ordered a disciplinary enquiry about the event. This move comes after ABVP began protesting outside the VC’s office, demanding all the students who “misled” the university about the nature of the events to be expelled. JNU authorities believe that the entire event was an act of indiscipline as the event was sought by “giving incomplete information” since Afzal Guru’s name was not mentioned anywhere in the permission request and the students allegedly passed it off as cultural event. Kumar’s arrest and police action on the JNU campus had infuriated the students who feel the government and Delhi Police have behaved unfairly. Support for the students has come from many other students and people across the country. The situation inside JNU remained tense and the presence of the police around the campus has added to the disturbed situation.
