Several Delhi University students on Monday boycotted exams and held protests to express solidarity with students of Jamia Millia and AMU protesting against the amended Citizenship Act following which heavy force was deployed at the Arts Faculty.
Sources said students from the English department of the varsity had written to their professors on Sunday night to postpone exams owing to the situation in Jamia but their request could not be considered.
At the Delhi University, students alleged that police cracked down on peacefully protesting students who boycotted exams.
However, a senior police officer said some students were stopping others from taking exams and police were there keeping a watch.
“We were at the campus just to keep a watch as some students were stopping others from taking exams,” said Monika Bhardwaj, Deputy Commissioner of Police (North).
