Bs Bassi On Jnu Row

Days after saying he would not oppose JNU student Kanhaiya Kumar's request for bail, Delhi Police chief BS Bassi has changed his stand. Explaining his volte face, he said today: "The circumstances have changed completely."

JNU student Kanhaiya Kumar was present with a group shouting anti-national slogans and indulging in anti-national activities on campus, the police have said a report defending his arrest. The police are likely to oppose the student's bail in the Delhi High Court, though police chief BS Bassi had said the opposite.

Delhi Police is "verifying" all video clips which it has used in the probe into the sedition case registered over the controversial JNU event, Commissioner BS Bassi said today hours after briefing Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung about the entire row and the return of five students in the campus.

Kanhaiya Kumar, the JNU student arrested on sedition charges, is not among the names listed in an Intelligence Bureau report on anti-India slogans raised at a controversial event.

Hours after shocking scenes of violence were witnessed for a second time this week at the Patiala House Court in Delhi, police commissioner BS Bassi mounted an extraordinary defence of his forces' ineptness in the handling of the situation.

Two police cases have been registered in connection with the attacks on journalists, students and teachers of JNU at the Patiala House court on Monday where JNU students union president Kanhaiya Kumar was brought for hearing.
