The Delhi Police registered a first information report against six students of the Jawaharlal Nehru University on Sunday, a day after clashes broke out during a protest march to the Vasant Kunj North police station, reported The Indian Express.

Among those booked are Jawaharlal Nehru University Students’ Union president Nitesh Kumar, its vice president Manisha and general secretary Munteha Fatima.

The protest march was called by Left-affiliated members of the students’ union, who accused the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad of “hooliganism” during a general body meeting held on Thursday at the university’s School of Social Sciences, according to the newspaper.
