DELHI STUDENTS PROTEST AGAINST DISHA’S ARREST

NEW DELHI: Students from various universities on Tuesday gathered outside the Delhi Police headquarters to demand the release of climate activist Disha Ravi and others arrested in connection with the farmers’ protest. The protesters, affiliated to All India Students’ Association (AISA) and other student organisations, also submitted a memorandum to the commissioner demanding the release of persons associated with the farmers’ protest.

“In a highly condemnable act, Delhi Police has arrested Disha Ravi, a 22-year-old Bengalurubased environment activist for supporting the farmers’ movement. All activists arrested for merely supporting the farmers’ movement must be released,” Prasenjeet Kumar, national working general secretary of AISA, said in the memorandum.
