The HRD Ministry is sending a two- member team to NIT Srinagar campus today which has been gripped by tension following clashes among students over the Indian cricket team's loss against West Indies in the T20 World Cup last week.


"The Ministry has decided to send a two-member team comprising a Director and an Under Secretary rank officer, who will listen to the students there," a senior official said.


Unrest was witnessed again yesterday at the campus, the scene of last week's clash, with outstation students expressing a sense of insecurity and attempting to leave the campus, leading to a confrontation with police which resorted to lathicharge in which some were injured.
