A university in Uttar Pradesh has packed off 150 students from Kashmir to their homes for celebrating Pakistan's victory over India in a cricket match on Sunday, prompting a top official to order an inquiry.
Vice-chancellor of Swami Vivekanand Subharti University (SVSU) Dr Manzoor Ahmad said "he was taken aback by such an unacceptable gesture of a few students".
"We can`t accept such behaviour from any student," he said.
The trouble began on Sunday night when a group of local and Kashmiri students were watching India-Pakistan cricket match in the hall of the varsity's Madan Dhingra Hostel.
A few Kashmiri students clapped every time an Indian player's wicket fell, and later celebrated the Pakistan win.
"Some students complained that a few students reportedly shouted Pakistan zindabad on way to their rooms," said Ahmad.
He said the authorities initially decided to suspend only those students who had shouted slogans.
"But a three-tier inquiry finally recommended all 150 Kashmiri students residing in Madan Dhingra Hostel be suspended indefinitely because they didn't reveal the names of the handful of wrongdoers actually involved in creating trouble," Ahmad said.
