Violent Protests Erupt in New Delhi Over India's New Citizenship Law

VOA News

   Police in India's capital clashed Friday with hundreds of students
   protesting against a new citizenship law that opponents say is
   anti-Muslim.
   Police fired tear gas and used batons against the demonstrators at
   Jamia Millia Islamia, a public university in New Delhi. The protesting
   students threw stones at police.
   Protests also continued Friday in the northeastern state of Assam,
   where demonstrations first broke out Wednesday after India's upper
   house of Parliament passed the citizenship bill.
