‘Not feeling safe, we want to go back home’: Kashmiri students in Ambala

SRINAGAR, (PTK): Kashmiri students lodged in the hostel of Maharishi Markandeshwar University (MMU) in Ambala’s Mullana village have requested police and district administration that they be sent back to Jammu and Kashmir Indian Express reported.

This request came a day after a Kashmiri student was allegedly beaten up by unidentified youths, and two days after the sarpanch of Mullana gave local residents a 24-hour “ultimatum” to “throw out” Kashmiris living on rent while citing the Pulwama attack.

Students claimed that on Saturday night, the student was hit with buckets, for which he had received stitches.
Mullana DSP Sudhir Taneja told Chandigarh Newsline, “We told the student to submit a complaint but he said he doesn’t want any action. He was coming to the hostel from the market, where he says he was hit by some men.” (PTK)
