The DCP further said that the students belonging to Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) have also intimated that they will also be giving a written complaint. "On receipt of the same necessary appropriate legal action will be taken," the senior official said. Warring camps at the JNU clashed on Sunday once again tarnishing the image of the country's one of the most prestigious universities. The Left alliance members accused the ABVP of forcefully prohibiting non-vegetarian food at a hostel on the campus while the ABVP alleged that the members of the Left alliance, including the NSUI, were not allowing them to conduct a 'puja' and 'havan' programme on the occasion of Ram Navami.
