"This is Modi's Emergency": Sitaram Yechury On Protesting JNU Students

The entry and exit to Udyog Bhawan, Patel Chowk and Central Secretariat metro stations have been closed in view of the JNU students' protests.

"The students of JNU can not survive with the present structure of fees that are sought to be pushed down their throat".

The students from Jawahar Lal Nehru University are chanting slogans and attempting to cross police barricades. This, even as the JNU administration announced a partial rollback of the hike.

"The number of police personnel present at the spot of the protest is higher than what we saw during an emergency", Sitaram Yechury said during a press briefing.

Ten companies have been deployed outside JNU, police said.

The police later stopped the march around 500 metres from the varsity's gates.

"We urge you to consider our plight and endorse our demands", the JNUSU appealed in the memorandum.

The protest march comes on the first day of the Parliament's Winter Session, which will end on 13 December.
