Violence hit Delhi’s prestigious JNU this evening as a group of masked goons entered the campus and went on a rampage, targeting students and teachers and vandalising property. Several students have been injured, including the head of its students’ union.
Eyewitnesses said the 50-odd goons entered the campus around 6.30 pm. Even around 9 pm, they were inside the campus. JNUSU tweeted that professors trying to protect the students were beaten up. “These are unknown ABVP goons, not all are students, they have covered their faces, and they are moving towards the hotels near the West Gate,” the tweet read.
