The Indian Express reached out to the JNU Press Relations Officer and the Chief Security Officer, who said they had no information regarding the clash. Tensions flared at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) on Thursday evening during an immersion procession for Durga Puja organised by Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP), after members of Left-affiliated student groups and ABVP clashed over the nature and content of the event. According to a statement issued by ABVP, the immersion procession was interrupted near Sabarmati T-Point around 7 pm, leading to a heated exchange between members of student organisations. The ABVP alleged that All India Students’ Association (AISA), Students’ Federation of India (SFI), and Democratic Students’ Federation (DSF) disrupted the procession and objected to the event being held on campus.
