Students Need Justice, Not FIRs

The Campaign for Judicial Peace (CJP) has urged the Centre and state governments to withdraw FIRs registered against students involved in recent protest movements.

CJP spokesperson Saurav Das said criminal cases against students could have a long-term impact on their education, careers and future opportunities.

Appeal to Governments

Saurav Das called on BJP and NDA-led state governments, along with the central government, to take steps to resolve cases filed during student protests.

He argued that students should not face lifelong consequences because of their participation in democratic demonstrations.

Concerns Over Student Futures

According to CJP, FIRs and legal proceedings can create difficulties for young people while applying for jobs, higher education and other opportunities.

The organisation said authorities should consider the future of students while dealing with protest-related cases.

Debate Around Student Protests

Student protests have frequently become a major point of discussion in India, raising questions about balancing the right to protest with maintaining public order.

While authorities often register cases during clashes or disruptions, activists and student groups have repeatedly demanded that peaceful protesters should not be targeted.

CJP’s appeal adds to the broader debate over how governments should respond to youth-led movements.
