Students are demanding the reopening of campus for physical/offline educational activities in JMI.
On Friday, Jamia Milia Islamia, JMI, students protested demanding the resumption of Moline academic activities on the campus and were assured by officials that the university will soon be reopened in a phased manner.
The left-affiliated All India Students' Association (AISA), along with other student outfits and JMI students, demanded the reopening of the campus.
Police started detaining them, claims students
Students claimed that when they reached in front of Gate No.7, the Delhi Police started detaining them. However, the police denied the charge. Seven students were detained in one batch and two students in the next batch, they alleged.
The Chief Proctor spoke to the protesters and announced that Jamia would reopen in phases and the notification for the first phase would be released by Tuesday.

The university first plans to call those students whose PhD submissions are near and students from the dentistry department where practicals are needed, said another official, as reported by PTI.
