The Delhi High Court refuses to entertain a plea for action against JNUSU President Kanhaiya Kumar for allegedly making anti-national remarks after securing bail in the sedition case.


The petition was filed in the high court today, seeking action against the JNU Students Union president on a sedition charge for saying that the Indian Army is responsible for raping women in Kashmir.


The petition said that Kanhaiya Kumar has sought azadi (freedom) for Kashmir, Nagaland and Assam where the government is an elected government voted by the people, said the plea, adding that he and his associates -- Anirban Bhattacharya and Umar Khalid -- have said that their fight for azadi would continue.


The plea sought the courts direction for investigation by the Intelligence Bureau into the issue.


Despite giving an undertaking to the court that he would not involve himself in any anti-national activities, Kanhaiya Kumars 45-minute speech after release from jail was controversial and faced the brunt of opposition.


Meanwhile, JNU leaders Umar Khalid and Anirban Bhattacharya's custody has been extended by 14 days.
