The student union at the Aligarh Muslim university has refused to remove Jinnah's potrait on Friday. Tension prevailed in Aligarh and students continued with their sit-in at the university's Baab-e-Syed gate, where they had clashed with the police on Wednesday. They are boycotting classes for the next two days. Wednesday's clash took place when the students were demanding action against right-wing protesters who entered the campus and watched the Pakistan founder's portrait removed from the student union office, where it has been hanging for decades.
