FIR filed against 11 students of Lucknow university for protesting against Yogi Adityanath

In a move which shows that the UP government will not tolerate any voice of dissent against the administration, the UP police filed FIR against 11 students of Lucknow University for protesting against CM Yogi Adityanath on Thursday.

These students raised black flags and shouted slogans against Adityanath while he was on his way to Lucknow University campus to take part into a function.

As soon the Yogi’s fleet reached Hanuman Setu, which is few blocks away from the campus, more than a dozen students raised black flags and shouted slogans and allegedly blocked the route of the fleet.

The road was cleared by force and the students were beaten by the Police. But in the FIR filed, Police has alleged that the students had beaten up the police personnel for stopping them. However, the injured students were taken into Balrampur hospital for their medical test.

Police has booked Ankit Singh Babu, Mahendra Yadav, Anil Yadav, Madhurya Singh Mathur, Vineet Kumar Kushwaha, Satwat Singh, Ashok Kumar Prabhat, Rakesh Sanmajwadi, Nitin Rajputra, Apoorva Verma and Pooja Shukla under IPC sections 147, 353, 504, 506, 332, 341, 120B and CrPC 7.

All these students are believed to have links with the Samajwadi Party, although that is not established.

The FIR filed by the Police does not mention the contact details and the full address of the complainant. When we tried to reach Police department for comment, they refused to answer our queries.
