AMU students demand Centre to take stand on Gaza conflict

Protest at Aligarh Muslim University continued for the third day today as protesters condemned Israel's offensive against Palestine and demanded the Centre to take a stand on the issue.
The protest, organised by the "AMU students for justice for Palestine" and "Resident Doctors Association Nehru Medical college" culminated with a rally at Sir Syed Gate beyond which they were not allowed to proceed.
The convener of the rally, Abdul Rauf, said a resolution was adopted by the protesters demanding the Indian government to "end diplomatic ties and trade with Israel till that country agrees to end the conflict in Gaza".

A memorandum in this regard was also addressed to President Pranab Mukherjee.
