The student's union of JNU on Wednesday denied the Delhi Police charge that it helped organise the antipollution protest at India Gate that has come under the scanner over alleged “pro-Maoist slogans’, calling the FIR’s claims “false” and “malicious”.

The Jawaharlal Nehru University Students’ Union (JNUSU) said it has “repeatedly” informed the police that it was “neither the organiser nor a participant” at Sunday's demonstration.

The FIR dated November 23, states in Hindi: “It was known from social media and reliable sources that on November 23 at 4 pm, under the banner of Delhi Coordinate Committee for Clean Air, members of AISA, JNUSU etc will protest at India Gate”
