MUMBAI: Voicing her protest on the violence against students in JNU in connection with the controversial Citizenship (Amendment) Act, actor-turned-writer Twinkle Khanna shared a news headline and wrote, “India, where cows seem to receive more protection than students, is also a country that now refuses to be cowed down. You can’t oppress people with violence-there will be more protests, more strikes, more people on the street. This headline says it all.”

Thousands registered their protest across India after a masked mob attacked students and teachers in New Delhi’s Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) on Sunday. Congress President Sonia Gandhi criticized the Modi government and the BJP for their violent attempts to suppress the voice of students.
