Delhi Police is facing flak for alleged inaction in the JNU incident, after they failed to act following SOS alerts from students seeking immediate help on Sunday afternoon. The police have reportedly issued a clarification where they claimed that five cops posted near the university's admin block on that day, did not get written consent to intervene in the matter before 7.45 p.m.
The attack on JNU students and teachers by masked goons has left several students badly injured, including JNUSU President Aishe Ghosh. The attack took place following a standoff for over two months between the students and the university administration over hike in hostel fees.
