When equality is denied everything is denied," the post said.The JNU students during Sitharaman's visit to the campus asked her as to why the Delhi Police had not yet registered any FIR or initiated any tangible action in this regard.On Wednesday, Union Commerce and Industry Minister Nirmala Sitharaman asked the Delhi Police to register an FIR under the SC/ST Act and start the probe in the suspected death of Jeevanantham.(ANI)
