The Delhi Police has registered a case against a group of students who were protesting at Connaught Place for violating Section 144 of the CrPC, officials said on Friday.

The students were part of a march on Thursday to the HRD Ministry.

The march by hundreds of JNU students was stopped when they tried to go towards Rashtrapati Bhavan demanding JNU Vice Chancellor M Jagadesh Kumar sacking over the January 5 violence in the campus.

"A case has been registered for violation of Section 144 and obstruction to government duty in Connaught Place," a senior police officer said.
