The sit-in by students of Jadavpur University (JU) and SRFTI against the police action inside Jamia Millia Islamia in Delhi continued for the second day on Tuesday.
Students of the Aliah University here formed a human chain to condemn the incident at Jamia.
JU arts faculty students' union leader Ushashi Paul told PTI that around 50 students of the varsity and the Satyjait Ray Film and Television Institute (SRFTI) are on a sit-in since Monday evening demanding punishment for the police personnel involved in the "brutal attack" on Jamia students.
The Jamia students "were on a democratic movement for withdrawal of the discriminatory and un-constitutional Citizenship Amendment Act", she said.
Paul said the agitating students of JU and SRFTI will decide about the future course of their action on Wednesday.
To a question about Chief Minister and TMC leader Mamata Banerjee urging everyone, including students to join her protest against the CAA at a rally here, Paul said "Yes, she has been publicly opposing NRC and CAB (now CAA) for quite some time."
Farah Khatoon, a student holding placard which read 'we can't be stopped by bullets, we stand by Jamia Milia friends" said "this country belongs to everybody, every community."
