JNUSU yet to speak on Kanhaiya Kumar's prosecution sanction

Kanhaiya Kuma

The JNUSU has for long defended Kanhaiya, Umar Khalid and Anirban Bhattacharya. On February 9, 2016, anti-national slogans were allegedly raised on the campus during a protest against the death sentence awarded to Afzal Guru in the 2002 Parliament attack. The 1,200-page charge sheet filed by the Delhi Police Crime Branch named 10 JNU students, including Kanhaiya Kumar, Umar Khalid, Anirban Bhattacharya, and seven Kashmiri students as the main accused in the case. Later JNUSU office-bearers maintained that these people were targeted on false charges and that the charge sheet was an effort by the BJP-led central government to muzzle students' voice.
