Students being used by political parties and their agendas is something this nation needs to address immediately. It’s heartbreaking to see kids being brutalised by power hungry politicians. #JNUViolence

JNU students being beaten up by ABVP goons. Live on TV!  How much longer are you going to look the other way? Or r u spineless? Yes I AM a liberal! Yes, I AM secular! And proud to be so if THIS is the alternative. Shame! Shame on ABVP & the police who are aiding & abetting them!

Dear @RahulGandhi, @ArvindKejriwal, spare us your moral high ground and get out there, stand in front of the JNU gate.

If not anything, your presence will add pressure on the cops. Not the time for political grandstanding!

Hai Dastoor ki subah hone se pehle
Raaton ka gehra ho jaana laazim hai
Zulm badhaao abhee tumhare zulmon ka
Had se baahar bhee ho jaana laazim hai

It’s shameful and enraging to see what’s happening in #JNUViolence

When is this madness going to end... what’s the price one can put on an innocent life. Frightening to see images of students and faculty members being attacked and hurt. This level of violence is unacceptable... #JNU

Who are these masked cowards attacking students? Why are the police not protecting them??
Unbelievable.

Why do you need to cover your face? Because you know you are doing something wrong, illegal & punishable.  There is no honour in this-Its horrific to see the visuals of students & teachers brutally attacked by masked goons inside JNU-Such violence cannot & should not be tolerated
