JNUSU president Kanhaiya Kumar said that students who have been served show-cause notice for “violating the rules and regulations of university” at the February 9 event have been given a two-day extension to the deadline of 16 March. Earlier, the replies had to be submitted to the Chief Proctor’s office by March 16.

The the high-level inquiry committee comprising five members, formed to look into the February 9 incident on the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) campus, has submitted the report.

Provocative slogans including ‘Bharat ko ragda do ragda’ (India should be stamped out) and ‘Pakistan Zindabad’ were raised at controversial JNU event by a group of masked outsiders, the high-level inquiry committee of the varsity has said.

However, the report said video footages of the February 9 event does not show anyone raising the slogan “Bharat Ki Barbadi tak jung rahegi” (Fight will go on till India is ruined) but claimed that eyewitnesses have confirmed shouting of such slogans in their deposition.

The committee has stated that though JNUSU President Kanhaiya Kumar, who has been charged with sedition in connection with the event, reached the venue late, but had objected to the decision of authorities regarding cancellation of permission to hold the programme.

The section of findings has been shared by the university with 21 students who have been issued a show-cause notice in this connection but the recommendations have been kept out of public domain.
