7 Kashmiri students held over revelry after India’s World Cup defeat

Seven Kashmiri students from Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences & Technology (SKUAST) in Ganderbal, Jammu and Kashmir, have been arrested for celebrating Australia's victory in the World Cup with chants. The celebrations, which involved bursting firecrackers, took place at a hostel and led to a complaint from a non-Kashmiri student. The students were arrested under the UAPA but officers declined to explain the precise ground on which the UAPA was slapped.
