Students have claimed there was a heavy police deployment in v💮iew of the demonstration. 

"It is not a protest but a candlelight vigil by Jamia students to commemorate the anniversary of the anti-CAA protests and the police action on st🎶udents. The university gatekeepers had to ensure no outsider enters and there is no untoward incident," a university official s𝔍aid.
