Jamia protest: Aam Aadmi Party to stage protest in Aurangabad

On Sunday, a violent clashes erupted between the students and the police when the Jamia students were agitating against the Citizenship Amendment Act.

"We are now going to make 'Dharna Aandolan' at Commissioners office tomorrow and those who love the constitution are hereby appealed to join us in this agitation," district AAP working president Isaak Andewala said.

Condemning on Jamia violence, the AAP executive body alleged that "the brutal attack on students of Jamia by the Delhi police took on the direction of Union Home Minister Amit Shah."

It further said, "The police entered the university and lathi-charged the students, fired tear gas and bullets, and also damaged the university library, hostels, and other public spaces in the university."

"The police action is a grave violation of the human rights of the students of Jamia, which is also a minority institution," it asserted.

"The students were protesting peacefully against the CAA, and had also distanced themselves from the violence which had occurred on the streets, as they were only a part of the peaceful protests," it mentioned.

"Yet, the police entered the university campus and held the students’ hostage, and also physically attacked them, as a result of which, many students have been injured. There are also reports of missing students and deaths which need to be verified," it alleged.

"The Jamia administration has also issued a statement that they did not allow the police to enter the campus, and that they (the police) entered the campus forcefully," AAP said.

Commenting on the CAA, the AAP alleged, "Now the BJP has no issue to go in public, the dirty politics of communal hatred is the only weapon BJP uses in any election, but the people of Delhi are politically literate and now clearly understood the black face of the BJP."

"BJP is losing Delhi and frightened by the rapid developmental decision taken by the Arvind Kejriwal government," it remarked.
