A clash between the students of Jamia Millia Islamia University and Delhi Police broke out on Friday when the former were taking out a march to protest against the Citizenship Act from the university campus to the parliament.
The march, which was announced by the teacher’s association of Jamia Millia Islamia, was joined by over 1,000 students. The Delhi Police, however, had put barricades across the road halting their progress.
“The students started jumping the barricades which led to a physical clash between the police and the students and the situation escalated from there onwards,” Majid Alam, a former student of the university said.
The police used tear gas to curb the students protest.
