Police probe shows Left involved in JNU violence: Javadekar

Union Minister Prakash Javadekar hit out at Left organisations, alleging that they pre-planned the violence which took place in JNU on January 5.

New Delhi:Union Minister Prakash Javadekar on Friday said the Delhi Police's ongoing probe into the January 5 violence in JNU has made it clear that students affiliated to left-wing bodies were involved in the incident.

Attacking the opposition, he said CPI, CPI(M) and AAP have been rejected in the Lok Sabha polls and "they are now using students for their vested interests".

"Today's police press conference established that for the last five days, the chorus that was created deliberately to blame ABVP, BJP, and others, that wasn't true. It is the left organisations that pre-planned violence, disabled CCTV and destroyed server," he said.

He also appealed to the agitating students of the university to end the stir and allow academic session to commence.

"Police has brought reality in light. It is clear that left wing students' outfits were involved in the attack," Javadekar said.

The Delhi Police today released pictures of nine suspects in the JNU violence case and claimed JNUSU president Aishe Ghosh was one of them.

About the attack on January 5, DCP (Crime Branch) Joy Tirkey said that specific rooms in the university's Periyar hostel were targeted.
