"What happened inside the Jawaharlal Nehru University is a subject of concern and condemnation. This kind of incident has never been seen before in the university's history. Till now the police officials should have been suspended. Prime Minister Narendra Modi should answer on the JNU violence and should know where the country is heading," Chief Minister told the reporters here.
"The Home Minister should speak about how the masked people entered the educational institution when the police were there. They have to take action against it," he added.
