A Delhi court has reserved its order on a plea seeking an FIR in a case of alleged anti-national sloganeering at Ramjas College by some students’ groups in February this year.

Metropolitan Magistrate Abhilash Malhotra reserved the order after hearing arguments of complainant advocate Vivek Garg and the Delhi Police, and posted it for next week.

The court had earlier warned Mr. Garg against mixing this incident with the JNU case in which sedition charge was slapped against some students.

Protest against event

On February 21, members of the RSS student-wing ABVP had gathered outside the college and shouted slogans in protest against a seminar for which JNU students Umar Khalid and Shehla Rashid were invited.
