The JNU Muslim Student Union has come out in support of the Tablighi Jamaat while demanding that the FIR against the Management be withdrawn, Times Now has reported.
As per the report, the Muslim student union released posters which read, “stand against Islamophobia, Muslims are not your scapegoat, stand with Tablighi Jamaat”.
