NEW DELHI: (Nov 26) The student’s union of JNU on Wednesday denied the Delhi Police charge that it helped organise the anti-pollution protest at India Gate that has come under the scanner over alleged “pro-Maoist slogans”, calling the FIR’s claims “false” and “malicious”.

The Jawaharlal Nehru University Students’ Union (JNUSU) said it has “repeatedly” informed the police that it was “neither the organiser nor a participant” at Sunday’s demonstration.

The FIR dated November 23, states in Hindi: “It was known from social media and reliable sources that on November 23 at 4 pm, under the banner of Delhi Co-ordinate Committee for Clean Air, members of AISA, JNUSU etc will protest at India Gate.”
