JNU row: Anti-national activities will not be tolerated, says Rajnath Singh

Stating that the government would not tolerate any anti-national activity in the country, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh today said stringent action will be taken against the demonstrators who raised 'anti-national' slogans at the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) campus.

 "When someone is in the country and raises anti-national statements, raising questions on India's unity, diversity and sovereignty then they won't be forgiven. What happened in JNU was unfortunate and for that, I have already given the necessary instructions to the Delhi Police Commissioner," Rajnath said.

Promising firm action against the demonstrators, he reiterated that anti-national statements cannot be forgiven.

"You can't raise anti-national statements while you stay in India," he added.
