Chandigarh, March 11 -- Student organisations at Panjab University staged a symbolic protest at the Student Centre on Tuesday, a day after more than 30 students were detained by Chandigarh Police during a demonstration against a lecture on Sikh history attended by speakers linked to the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Students gathered at the Student Centre, raised slogans and addressed a small crowd, condemning police action during Monday's protest.

Student organisations alleged that during the confrontation some protesters were manhandled. University authorities, however, said the students were detained as a precautionary measure to prevent disruption on campus. htc...
