Women students on Thursday expressed solidarity with jailed Jamia Millia Islamia student Safoora Zargar, who is three months pregnant and is being trolled online over the identity of her unborn child's father.

The students used #WithSafooraAgainstSlander on social media, demanding that the online ''slandering'' against her must stop.

Some students even posted their pictures carrying placards with slogans like 'Free Safoora' and 'Drop charges against her' and sought a legal action against those maligning her online.

Jawaharlal Nehru University Students' Union president Aishe Ghosh tweeted a picture of Zargar and wrote, "A pregnant woman, been put behind the bars and the s*** shamming she is facing. Is this what makes our country great ? Arrest #KapilMishra #WithSafooraAgainstSlander."
