Plea filed by @DelhiPolice challenging Trial Courtโ€™s order which discharged Sharjeel Imam and ten others in connection with the Jamia Milia Islamia University violence case of 2019.
#JamiaVoilence #DelhiPolice
Last Thursday, the court directed all the respondents to 'file their written submissions within four days' and also directed the @DelhiPolice to 'place on the record the videos of the incident they rely upon'.

Additional Solicitor General (ASG) Sanjay Jain appears for State. Refers to his written submissions.
ASG: The trial court order is perverse & unsustainable. Non consideration or selective consideration of the third chargesheet makes the order more perverse.

Spoke in Lok Sabha to oppose the Demand for Grants of Ministry of Education because there have been no steps in 6 years to improve the state of education for Muslim minorities or to reduce their drop out rate. The literacy rate of Muslims is 68.5% vs the national rate 74.04% 1/n
Muslim female literacy rate is 62% vs overall rate of 65.44%. @EduMinOfIndia data says that Muslim enrolment in primary & higher education is only 13.14%. #AISHE says that there are only 19.5 lakh Muslims in higher education. This is only 5.23% of total enrolment 2/n
|@PMOIndia patronisingly wanted to give Qur'an in one hand & computer in another to Muslims. But 2018-19 data says only 16% Muslim households have computers which is 2nd lowest. Only 32% households have internet also the 2nd lowest, only 38% have ability to operate a computer 3/n

(4) Let's say that we somehow managed to get a fast internet and good pc that don't overheat. There will still be major issue- NAVIGATION; we cant go back and forth during our exams while it was clearly mentioned in the guide that it would be there #boycottcodetantra
(5) Even faculties face some problems. One of my proctors accidentally got connected to me and it created a lot of confusion for 5 mins. It's been a hell for faculties this sem already and they don't deserve this. #boycottcodetantra
(6) Everyone is blaming their faculty advisors for everything while the real fault lies at front of management. They should've started testing this platform a month beforehand. This will allow to fix all the bugs in time for exams. #boycottcodetantra

Quick thread on #Jamia since there's so much floating around.

I spent around 6 hours there today, starting from the afternoon, with my colleagues @adnanabidi and @dansiddiqui.

We didn't see/experience:

1. Any lathicharge
2. Any chemical substances

#CAA_NRCProtests
A large group of protesters spent several hours pushing at police, many in riot gear, at a barricade.

In the tussle, many protesters fainted, and were quickly moved out of the site by ambulances.

Some may have been injured in scuffles.

#Jamia #JamiaProtest #JamiaMilliaIslamia
The police, far better equipped with seemingly new riot gear, was more restrained that I've seen in the past, including at #Jamia itself.

I didn't see them spray any substance, or use water cannons.

I spent many hours just meters away from the barricades myself.

Ends.

Important to note: What I saw outside #UPBhawan today was dramatic, but it was nothing compared to the kinds of police brutality happening in Uttar Pradesh right now, or what happened at #JamiaMilliaIslamia and #AligarhMuslimUniversity University on Dec 15. (1/7)
I wrote about all of that for the @latimes yesterday. What I saw today was โ€œjustโ€ aggressive handling of protestors - not, as has been the case the crackdowns Iโ€™ve written about, the use of batons, teargas, guns, and in reportedly even stun grenades. (2/7) latimes.com/world-nation/sโ€ฆ
This is Rohool Banka (@rohool_banka) after the crackdown at #JamiaMilliaIslamia on Dec 15. A 25-year-old Kashmiri Muslim, he told me that when police stormed the library he was studying in, he tried to pretend he was Hindu. Thatโ€™s the only way he thought heโ€™d survive. (3/7)

On Sunday, police smashed their way into the main library of #JamiaMilliaIslamia, firing tear gas shells as terrified students barricaded doors and hid inside bathrooms to protect themselves.

โ€œIt was a night of horrors," one student said.

#CABProtests
Video footage shot by a student inside the library and reviewed by Reuters shows dozens of young students - including several women - scrambling for cover, cowering beneath desks, and jumping over metal and broken glass dividers as they attempted to flee.
My colleagues @sankalp_sp @aftabahmed00 and @zebatweets also spoke to several students trapped inside the campus to piece together what happened.

โ€œThere were continuous sounds of tear gas,โ€ one student told us. โ€œThey were just beating any students they saw so cruelly.โ€

THREAD- More videos surfacing of police beating up students INSIDE the campus. Iโ€™ll be sharing them in this thread

NOTE: Iโ€™ve received these from students, they tell me these are recorded on Sunday.

Disturbing.

Hope @DelhiPolice can clarify/verify these. #JamiaMilliaIslamia

Long thread on Jamia protests: So why is Jamia protesting? I will not attempt a political commentary that mainstream media is already immersed into. A critical question is - why do students spend so much energy to protest on #CABBill2019 that doesnot not impact them in any way?
My last article on #JNUProtests tried to connect dots on the overall lack of accountability of students to their careers,a general mis-direction of energy,absence of realism on current economic issues & the low fee structure that creates absence of urgency for anything productive
Jamia protests provoked me to explore the same for the university, with almost similar results. Probably worse. Letโ€™s see the facts & you can decide.
Basics first. Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI) has about 18500 students in college level courses. #JamiaMilliaIslamia
