- Yet another act of violence breaks at the campus on Sunday evening where
masked goons enter the campus, attacking students and teachers with wooden and metal rods. - Nearly 50 masked goons — allegedly from ABVP (
Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad ) — entered the premises vandalising property and injuring students staying in the hostel. - As of now, nearly 50 students have been admitted to AIIMS, along with a few teachers.
- Several political leaders urge the government to take action and monitor the situation.
The situation in the university was tense for the last few months over a hostel fee hike. It had aggravated as students too participated in Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) protests.
