On the night of February 22, the Jawaharlal Nehru University Students’ Union (JNUSU) organised a rally against “casteist remarks” made by JNU Vice Chancellor Prof. Santishree Dhulipudi Pandit in a podcast.

JNUSU, along with other student organisations, carried out a “lockdown” throughout campus. But what was meant to be a “peaceful protest” asking for the V-C’s resignation turned into a night of chaos with All India Students’ Association (AISA) and Akhil Bharatiya Vidhyarthi Parishad (ABVP) accusing each other of stone-pelting and assault.
