He alleged that Najeeb was beaten up in full view of the hostel warden, university president and hostellers on October 15 night. Najeeb was allotted a hostel only 10 days ago and joined JNU three months ago. Stating that the university also has a responsibility towards the student, Mr. Khalid said the administration had not filed a police complaint (and only the family and students had) and have not taken action against those who attacked Najeeb. We are not living in medieval times.”Speaking on Balochistan, Mr. Khalid said he supports all the “oppressed” nations and nationality movements. Similarly, it is hypocrisy if the Prime Minister speaks of Balochistan but carries on brutalities in Kashmir,” he said.
