Congress leader Salman Khurshid on Tuesday took part in the anti-CAA, NRC, and NPR protests being held at Jamia gate number seven on Tuesday night.

"I come here regularly, it has now been more than two months but the government is yet to respond to this protest," Khurshid told reporters on Tuesday.
