New Delhi: Senior leader of Communist Party of India - Marxist (CPI-M), Sitaram Yechury, on Friday, reportedly avoided the questions raised by the media personnel regarding disorderly conduct of few Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) students with the journalists on October 3.

Yechury, in this regard, said: "Whoever have raised questions against the government had been given titles of 'Traitors' or 'Urban Naxals'."

"I was not there at the time of the incident. You should inquire about it from the people who were present there," he replied.

It may be recalled that few students from the JNU on Thursday staged a protest to oppose a lecture programme of Union Minister Jitendra Singh on revoking of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir.

The students during the demonstration also misbehaved with ETV Bharat's journalist present at the campus. A video of the entire incident has gone viral.

Intro:जेएनयू एक बार फिर गलत कारणों से सुर्खियों में है । गुरुवार को केंद्रीय मंत्री जितेंद्र सिंह के कार्यक्रम का विरोध करने पहुँचे वामपंथी छात्र संगठनों से जुड़े छात्र मीडियाकर्मियों के साथ भी बदसलूकी पर उतर आए और धक्का मुक्की की । पूरी घटना की वीडियो भी सामने आई जिसमें साफ देखा गया कि प्रदर्शन के लिये जुटे छात्र किस तरह से पत्रकार के साथ बदसलूकी कर रहे हैं ।
कम्युनिस्ट पार्टी की छात्र इकाइयों से जुड़े छात्रों के इस शर्मनाक हरकत पर जब सीपीएम के महासचिव और वरिष्ठ नेता सीताराम येचुरी से सवाल पूछा गया तो इस घटना की निंदा करने की बजाय वो सरकार के खिलाफ अपना राजनीतिक व्यक्तव्य देने लगे ।
येचुरी ने पहले मुख्य सवाल को टालते हुए कहा कि जो भी सरकार के खिकाफ आवाज उठाये उसको टुकड़े टुकड़े गैंग, देशद्रोही और अर्बन नक्सल की संज्ञा दे दी जाती है ।
लेकिन जब ईटीवी भारत के संवाददाता ने उनसे पत्रकारों के साथ हुए दुर्व्यवहार पर प्रतिक्रिया लेनी चाही तो सीताराम येचुरी ये कहते हुए कन्नी काट गये की वो वहां पर मौजूद नहीं थे और इस मामले पर सवाल उनसे पूछा जाए जो वहाँ पर मौजूद थे ।

Body:हैरानी की बात है कि जब यही वामपंथी छात्र संगठन से जुड़े छात्रों के खिलाफ कोई मामला होता है तो तमाम वामपंथी पार्टियों के नेता खुद JNU पहुँच जाते हैं लेकिन आज जब उन्हीं छात्रों ने पत्रकारों के साथ बदसलूकी की है तो ये वरिष्ठ नेता निंदा के दो शब्द भी नहीं बोल पाते हैं ।
