The complainant said he has already lodged a complaint

with the DCP (North) and the SHO of Maurice Nagar police station but no action has been taken by the police, following which he had moved the complaint before the court.

The court was hearing the plea after it was transferred before it by the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate (CMM).

On February 28, the CMM had expressed anguish over the complaint and said, "it's all between students. Why are you (complainant) entering into it?"

The plea alleged that such slogans were shocking, damaging for the country and an open challenge to its unity and safety and the judicial system.

It alleged that organisers of the seminar had misled the college administration to obtain the nod for the event and "conducted activities against the nation and tried to wage a war against the country".

It sought lodging of FIR for the alleged offences of sedition, criminal conspiracy, waging war against the State and defamation under the IPC.

On February 21, members of RSS student wing ABVP had gathered outside the college and shouted slogans in protest against a seminar for which JNU students Omar Khalid and Shehla Rashid were invited. The ABVP members allegedly pelted stones, vandalised the venue and disrupted the seminar.

The next day violent clashes erupted between Left and ABVP students leaving several students and three teachers injured.
