NEW DELHI: Expressing solidarity with the students on a relay hunger strike for past four days, the teachers and karamcharis of Jawaharlal Nehru University organised a public meeting on the campus on Tuesday evening. The agitation demanding revocation of rustication orders and other punishments handed out to 11 students received a boost on Monday with the Jawaharlal Nehru University Teachers’ Association (JNUTA) adopting a resolution demanding withdrawal of the reprimand and reiterating its moral support to the students’ struggle against violation of minimum wage payments to workers on the campus. “This will build more pressure on the administration to withdraw the unwarranted punishment order,” said JNU Students’ Union (JNUSU) president Dhananjay Tripathi. On Tuesday, 10 students led by JNUSU general secretary Sandeep Singh continued the relay hunger strike. Raja meets Arjun Singh
Meanwhile, Communist Party of India secretary D. Raja met Union Human Resource Development Minister Arjun Singh and sought his intervention to resolve the impasse at Jawaharlal Nehru University. The CPI leader is understood to have told the Union Minister that the issue should be resolved before the start of the new academic session in JNU.
