Jamia Varsity to probe students’ protest against Ayodhya Temple

A group of Jamia Millia Islamia students in Delhi demonstrated against the Babri Masjid’s demolition on the university campus on the day of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple in Ayodhya’s “Pran Pratishtha” ceremony. Students held signs that read “RSS down down” and “Strike for Babri” during Monday’s protest.

Additionally, videos from the protest gained popularity and were shared on social media. In a video, two students could be seen chanting and holding signs featuring images of destroyed mosques, despite attempts by university security to dissuade them. According to university officials, the students were taken out of the area as soon as the protest got underway.

“There were 2-3 students who raised slogans and showed placards yesterday. When we got the knowledge the students were removed from the place. The university is further looking into the matter,” a Jamia official told.
He also said that ongoing exams for the evening shift went smoothly.
“No problems were faced during the exams. Jamia called the half day off, so the first half exams were postponed,” he added.
The Pran Pratishtha of Ram Lalla was held at Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple in Ayodhya on Monday. Following the Pran Pratishtha, the shrine was opened to the public on Tuesday.
