New Delhi: Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh has condemned the attack on a group of Kashmiri students at Rajasthan's Mewar University and appealed to all state governments to ensure safety of Kashmiris. "I appeal to all the chief ministers to ensure safety of Kashmiri youths. No Kashmiri should be harassed. If such incidents happen, immediate action should be taken," Mr Singh said.
Calling the incident as "unfortunate", the minister said, "Kashmiris are citizens of India and part of our family. They should not be harassed."
Six Kashmiri students studying at Mewar University were beaten up by some locals in Chittorgarh district.
The minister said proper inquiry should be initiated in each case and strongest possible action should be taken against the guilty in both the states.
Mr Jani claimed they have put up these banners and hoardings along the Partapur bypass outside the colleges where Kashmiri students study.
Partapur Station House Officer Dinesh Sharma said the banners have been taken down and an FIR has been registered against accused persons for "promoting or attempting to promote disharmony on the grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language, caste or community".
