A section of students at Jawaharlal Nehru University, including the students union, have alleged that they are unable to access any news portal’s YouTube channel, other than that of Zee News, over the university WiFi, a claim denied by the university officials. We are redirected to a page that says we are trying to access “adult content.” We cannot even access YouTube videos of previous presidential debates at JNU. This has been going on since Friday,” said Geeta Kumari, the president of the JNU Students’ Union. “Along with several other news portals, the AISA (All India Students’ Association) YouTube Channel has also been blocked by the JNU administration through JNU’s WiFi,” said Sucheta De, the national president of AISA. Searches for “The Wire Hindi” and certain other news portals do not show their YouTube Channels in the results, according to the video.
