As a mark of protest against the police action in Jamia Millia University, a group of students stood shirtless in the bone-chilling cold outside the varsity gates.
Braving the cold, the students raised slogans of "Inquilab Zindabad" and took out a march. They were accompanied by other fellow students.
"Our colleagues have been beaten up badly. The policemen entered bathrooms, libraries and beat up girls. Our protest is against the goons called Delhi Police," said a research scholar who did not want to be identified.
As a few women escorted an injured student to narrate their ordeal to the media, some people were seen asking them not to give any statements.
"We were inside the university when the police barged in. Around 20 policemen came from gate no 7 and 50 others came from the rear gate. We told them we were not involved in the violence. They didn't listen. They didn't even spare women," Khanzala, who suffered injuries to the legs and abdomen, said.
A woman broke down as Khanzala showed his injuries to the media. A few students and locals were seen clearing the roads to allow smooth movement of vehicles.
Violent protests erupted near Jamia Millia Islamia in Delhi on Sunday during the stir over the new citizenship law. The spillover effect was witnessed in AMU, Hyderabad, West Bengal, Kerala and other parts of the country.
The Delhi Police also released 50 students who were detained on Sunday during protests. The release of the students came after hundreds of students staged a massive protest in front of Delhi Police Headquarters.
Meanwhile, Chief Justice of India, S.A. Bobde, will hear on Tuesday a petition on the violence against the students.
