I had been to the JNU Campus on 6th January to assess the situation following the brutal assault on the students and faculty members by a huge troop of armed goons the previous day (5th Jan). The goons were obviously hired by ABVP and their Parivar and had the apparent blessings of the Police (controlled by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs), the VC and the JNU administration. Ironically, the Police that failed to nab even a single member of the gang of goons that had conducted this criminal operation, either during this event or later, has filed criminal charges against the students seriously injured during the assaults.
