An Indo-Pak civil society forum today came out in support of Delhi University student Gurmehar Kaur and condemned the RSS-affiliated ABVP for "targeting" her.
Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad today said the government fully supports freedom of expression while criticising those who "abused" DU student Gurmehar Kaur on the social media.
A case of sexual harassment and criminal intimidation was today registered against unknown persons in connection with the alleged rape threats to an army martyr's daughter, at the centre of a students' unrest.
Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad expressed his views on the ongoing debate on nationalism and commented on the raging Gurmehar Kaur 'freedom of speech' row.
Kaur, a student of Delhi University‘s Lady Shri Ram College, had taken on the ABVP on Facebook and Twitter. She posted a picture of herself holding up a placard that read, “I am a student from Delhi University. I am not afraid of ABVP. I am not alone. Every student of India is with me. #StudentsAgainstABVP.â€
