After the Delhi government gave a go-ahead to the city police to prosecute former JNUSU President Kanhaiya Kumar and nine others in connection with a 2016 sedition case, Kumar thanked them and called for a speedy trial in a fast-track court.

"Thank you, Delhi government for granting permission for a trial in the sedition case. It's a request to the Delhi police and lawyers to take up this matter seriously. There should be a speedy trial in a fast-track court. Unlike 'Aapki Adaalat' on TV, there should be proper trial and justice in the case. Satyamev Jayate," Kumar tweeted.
