To protest the death of a student of Jamia Millia Islamia in a bus accident, the University students held a demonstration here in the Campus today. A speeding blueline bus crushed Lalit, a 2nd year student of BTech, yesterday evening in the Campus.
The students started protesting soon after the accident and continued it throughout the night to demand compensation for the family of the victim. Proctor called-in Police to control the “agitating” students. Many students are seriously injured in the lathi-charge.
The new Vice-Chancellor Najeeb Jung, who joined 24 hours ago, addressed the students today and assured them of every possible help. Regarding students’ demand of 20 lakh as compensation to the family of victim, he said, "There can't be any compensation for life. Why demand 20 lakh, why not One Crore?"
He also informed the students that he has asked DCP, South Distt to come to his office to discuss the students’ complain that Police enters hostels even on slightest pretext with the complicity of Jamia administration.
