Delhi HC stays suspension of Jamia students over campus protests
New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Tuesday stayed the suspension of several Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI) students who were penalised for protesting on campus without prior permission.
The court directed the constitution of a panel under the supervision of the Vice Chancellor to resolve the issue and asked the university to submit a report.
The order came while hearing a plea filed by one of the 17 suspended students challenging the action taken against her. The students were suspended earlier this month for allegedly protesting without permission and defacing public property. More students are expected to approach the court in the coming days, seeking revocation of their suspensions.
Meanwhile, protests continue as students oppose the university's ban on demonstrations and meetings without prior approval. They are also demanding the reinstatement of four PhD scholars who were suspended for holding a demonstration on December 14, 2024, marking the fifth anniversary of clashes between anti-CAA protesters and the police on the JMI campus.
