A court here on Monday directed the Maurice Nagar police to file an action-taken report on a complaint filed by a lawyer seeking directions to the police to lodge a sedition case against certain students for allegedly raising anti-India slogans at Ramjas College on February 21.

Metropolitan Magistrate Abhilash Malhotra asked the SHO to file the report and posted the matter on March 30 for further hearing.

Complainant Vivek Garg alleged that the students had raised the slogans following withdrawal of permission to organise a seminar called “Unveiling the State: Regions in Conflict” by the college principal.
