5:35 pm
trying to save them because i've been. trying to save. the police is telling the media has told us that deployed as quickly as they could given that there was a situation to hand did you get support from the police. no not at all the. police was very. good and. it seems it was the. sponsor. getting beat up badly. and the police was waiting outside waiting for the confirmation from the vice. with. your reporter from the university campus what is the real reason why he was
5:36 pm
attacked. well for range the immediate issue at hand was tests by students over the fee hike structural ending in a listed these protests have been going on for a while but once again this was a putting off lefty thing student groups which usually dominated the university wasn't right even student groups and because all of the universities in the nations to the left they have generally students from the university have generally been participating in multiple thought tests about social justice or equality many of these are against the governments of the jan you would be going to was a has been seen as a hotbed of dissent and many a wide array of critics of what it about the fact that maybe this crackdown actually aligns with an overall crackdown of dissent by this government and perhaps this wasn't simply about the fee hike issue but could be a larger effort to suppress dissent coming out from this university but this is
5:37 pm
going to do it. as the dispute the opposition against the government one is done today. well yes definitely british the narrative that i was speaking off that this is a crackdown on dissent has been picked up by the political opposition multiple political leaders from opposition parties have come out and said that this is the government once again supporting co-working supporting a crackdown on young students on students peaceful students who are critical of this government however it's also interesting to note that the government itself political leaders from within the party which on top archie as well as ministries have come out on force the media condemning these attacks saying that such treatment all students on peaceful university campuses was not to be tolerated this is also interesting and contrast to why events that happened last month on another university campus john the university in new delhi and why an opposition picked

people the attackers were being supported by the roadies and the students say that such discretion was not exercised in the past so why was the police holding back while they were being attacked and we should just well thanks very much for that. and there's been strong reaction on social media to the violence on the jane your campus from a variety of high profile indians for example chairman of the comedy factor on my hero group and in my head i was treated it doesn't matter what your politics are if you're an indian you cannot tolerate lawless goans bollywood star sort of ask her to lay the blame squarely on the hindu nationalist b.g.p. government saying let's be clear the attack on jane you last night is a culmination of 3 years of relentless and false vilification of jade used wooden stitchers and the institution itself and follow congress leader raul gandhi tweeted the fascist in control of our nation not afraid of the voices of our brave students today's violence in jail you is a reflection of the fia. in
