Protests Against Sambhal Killings Intensify Students from Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI) and Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) held protests this week over the recent killings of five Muslim community members in Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh. Police firing during a protest at the Shahi Jama Masjid reportedly led to the deaths of six young men, including Noman, Naeem, and Mohd Bilal Ansari. Jamia Students Condemn Police Action On November 27, Jamia students organized a protest led by groups like the Fraternity Movement and AISA. They accused the police of targeting Muslims and condemned the aggressive action during the mosque survey. Protesters carried placards with messages such as "Babri will not be repeated" and "#AllEyesOnIndianMosques." https://twitter.com/JmiSfi/status/1861766459669496266 The students also blamed advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain for inciting violence. Jain had filed a petition alleging that the Sambhal Jama Masjid was a temple, escalating tensions. Protesters demanded justice and strict implementation of the Places of Worship Act, 1991. JNU Stages Solidarity Protest A day earlier, JNU students formed a human chain at Connaught Place, New Delhi, condemning the killings.
