HC asks JNU not to nix hostel facilities of 5 students
The Delhi High Court on Tuesday directed JNU to allow submission of thesis and hostel facility for five students who were penalised in connection with a 2016 campus event in which antinational slogans were allegedly raised
New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Tuesday directed JNU to allow submission of thesis and hostel facility for five students who were penalised in connection with a 2016 campus event in which anti-national slogans were allegedly raised.
The Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) had also imposed varying fines on these students.
Justice Siddharth Mridul told the varsity to ensure the students in question are allowed to submit their thesis, continue in their hostels and their application for registration for the next academic year is accepted.
While issuing the direction to JNU, the court told the students that "there should be no hubris that you have an order from the high court".
"It should not turn into the aftermath of an English-France soccer match. You cannot take the law into your hand," the judge said.
