JMI students protest against cancellation of activist Safoora Zargar’s admission- Education News
Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI) students staged a protest against the university administration on Tuesday over the cancellation of activist Safoora Zargar’s admission.
The students accused the university administration of targeting Zargar as she was involved several protests. Zargar was arrested in a case related to the 2020 northeast Delhi riots. Her admission was cancelled by the Department of Sociology in the university, citing “unsatisfactory” progress in her thesis work. JMI Zargar enrolled with the Department of Sociology in the integrated MPhil/PhD programme in 2019.
Zargar, along with various student organisations, including the Students Islamic Organisation of India (SIO), the Fraternity Movement and the Campus Front of India, joined the protest. The students put up slogans such as “down with the Jamia administration” and “down with (Vice Chancellor) Najma Akhtar”.
