Kashmiri students in Chandigarh form union

Chandigarh, February 18, 2018 (PPI-OT): In the wake of incessant hateful attacks in many parts of India, Kashmiri students in Chandigarh have come together to form a students’ union. The prime objective behind KSU, according to its founders, is to work for the welfare of Kashmiri students enrolled in various colleges of Chandigarh and take up their issues with relevant authorities.

“We are aware of the problems faced by Kashmiri students in different parts of India, especially with attacks on Kashmiri students in Rajasthan, Bangalore and more recently in neighbouring Haryana,” said Syed Farman Safvi, a co-founder of KSU and a B Tech student at Doaba Institute.

“The sole purpose of forming KSU is to ensure Kashmiri students in Chandigarh feel safe and secure and don’t have to face any problems in their respective colleges.” In recent months, Kashmiri students have been attacked in many parts of India which has created a sense of panic among Kashmiri students in Chandigarh, says Adil Butt, a co-founder of KSU, who is also associated with PUSU.
