A group of men, reportedly supporting the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and National Register of Citizens (NRC) wielding the tricolor and shouting slogans of “Desh ke gaddaron ko, goli maaro saalon ko” and “Jai Shri Ram” allegedly gathered near the Jamia Millia Islamia University today, the University said on Twitter.

#SOSJamia : Hindutva goons have entered @jamiamillia_ campus and chanting “goli maaron saalon ko” right in front of @DelhiPolice .

We urge people to gather at gate no 7 in large numbers.

Delhi Police role till today has been suspicious in handling the situation at Jamia.

After repeated attacks on Jamia, RW goons have again entered the premises chanting “goli maaro saalon ko”.

Has the RAF been deployed here to control these mobs or to intimidate students?

Home Minister @AmitShah should explain why goons are being unleashed on us everyday.

According to National Herald, the men came from the Sukhdev Vihar area and stopped at the barricade near Gate No. 1 where the main protest against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) is being held. Hafeez Azmi, a JMI student said, “They were there for more than 10 minutes, chanting ‘Jai Shri Ram’ and shouting ‘goli maro….’ The police were standing right there.”

In its statement on Twitter, the JMI said, “We urge people to gather at gate no. 7 in large numbers. Delhi Police’s role till today has been suspicious in handling the situation at Jamia.”

It has been reported that the police personnel present at the spot subsequently asked the group of men to disperse and took them towards Sukhdev Vihar. There are no details of which group the men are affiliated to. India Today reported that the police had detained around 40 men at Kalkaji and said that the CAA-NRC supporters had come there from Sonepat, Haryana.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ministers Anurag Thakur and Kapil Mishra, and party affiliates have been resorting to constant provocation through this slogan, calling people to ‘shoot the traitors’ (protestors of CAA). Last week, an armed man shouting the slogan ‘Yeh lo azaadi’ opened fire at the protestors near the University injuring one student.
