As per reports, Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) has tightened security arrangements for its convocation on Monday (12 January), amid tensions on campus after allegedly inflammatory slogans were raised at a student event earlier in the week.

Following are the details:

• Additional security personnel — double the usual strength — will be deployed at the convocation venue this year. Instead of the typical 10-12 security officers usually deployed at the venue, around 30 personnel will be deployed this year.
• Delhi Police and Central Reserve Paramilitary Forces (CRPF) personnel will also be present at the venue.
• The venue will have only a single entry and exit point, and access will be strictly regulated. Only individuals identified and approved by the university will be allowed to enter.
• Sources indicate that in case students attempt to protest outside the venue, particularly along Nelson Mandela Marg, the Delhi Police will intervene.
