At a time when the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), Delhi campus boils over the case of a missing student Najeeb Ahmed, the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT-B) has become the first university in the city to conduct an activity in solidarity.

A march was held by the students of Ambedkar Periyar Phule Study Circle of the institute on its Powai campus on Monday evening. They waved placards with messages such as ‘stop hunting Muslims’, ‘bring back Najeeb’, ‘another instance of minority hunt campuses’ and ‘we demand fair investigation’. The members of the group have also expressed their disappointment over how the university administration preferred to remain mum.
