Three prominent journalist of the valley including Azaan Javaid, Anees Zargar and Hakim Irfan were also thrashed by the police.

 “We have NEET facilitation center in our college and some outsiders might have sneaked into the college campus. Otherwise, everything was going on in a hassle free manner. No student was involved in any untoward activity,” said Principal, Islamia College, Dr Sheikh Ajaz.

Meanwhile, Union Territory government of Jammu and Kashmir has asked the students to use the social media cautiously.

“The students are further requested to use the social media cautiously and refrain from any such activity which can disturb peace and harmony,” the government said in a brief statement. “They are further advised not to pay heed to any of the rumors and are requested to contact on following numbers for assistance.”

The advisory issued by the Higher Education Department of the government has listed the names and cell phone numbers of the liaison officers at six places across India, who were appointed by the last government.
