Anti-CAA protest | Allahabad High Court dismisses AMU students’ petitions on police’s action

The Bench of Chief Justice of Allahabad HC and Justice J.J. Munir dismissed a bunch of petitions filed expressing concerns regarding the anti-CAA protest that took at the campus of Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) followed by the police’s actions on protestors. The court observed that students enter universities or any educational Institutions for the purpose of education and not indulge in activities which bring a bad name to great educational institutions.

The court ordered the administration of the AMU to establish a mechanism for better communication with the students’ fraternity so that they are not influenced by outsiders. It maintained that communication channels should always remain open with students.

“But equal responsibility is also of the students that they do not fall in the trap of unscrupulous persons operating outside the university to disturb the peace there. Educational institutions have to maintain discipline. The students enter universities or any educational institution for the purpose of education and not indulge in these kinds of activities, which brings bad name to the great educational Institutions,” the court observed.
