New Delhi: At least two protesters from Goa’s Mapusa who were summoned after the NEET paper leak protests on July 24 (Friday) were made to fill a 240-point questionnaire, including questions on activist Umar Khalid, the Indian Express has reported.A protester was detained by the Goa police on Friday for allegedly raising the slogan ‘Free Umar Khalid’ at the NEET protests. Khalid has been jailed under the draconian Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act since September 2020 over his alleged involvement in the Northeast Delhi riots. He remains in prison without trial.Initial reports had indicated that the Goa police had detained one person after the protests for raising slogans related to Khalid, however, it was reported by the paper that two other protesters were summoned on Sunday and Monday. The police action came in response to an application submitted by a local group called ‘Citizens of Mapusa’, the report said.According to the report, the Goa police’s questionnaire included questions such as: “What is your understanding of the words ‘Free Umar Khalid‘…?”; “Did you criticise any government authority during your address?”; and “Who financed the protest?”.Other questions that were part of the 240-point questionnaire were: Who was leading the protest?Are you a member of any WhatsApp, Telegram or Signal group related to the protest?How did you travel to the venue?What did you intend to achieve through the protest?Are you associated with any political party, social organisation, student organisation, NGO or activist group?Were you aware of the background relating to Umar Khalid before attending the protest?Did you shout the slogan “Free Umar Khalid”? If yes, how many times did you raise the slogan?Did others repeat the slogan after you?Who financed or arranged the banners, placards, sound system or other material?How many placards were distributed at the venue?Did you post any photograph of yourself while holding the placard on social media?The police questionnaire also included questions on whether the protesters had attended similar protests in Goa or elsewhere in the country along with additional information about these protests. It also asked protesters whether they had deleted any electronic data related to the protest and whether they could provide their phones for examination, the report said.Superintendent of Police, North Goa, Harishchandra Madkaikar told the paper, “A complaint was filed by a group, Citizens of Mapusa. Based on that, we called them (the protesters) for an inquiry and after conducting the inquiry, they were allowed to go.”“Certain questions were put to them and recorded as part of the inquiry. Usually when we start an inquiry, we are supposed to ask questions until we get a satisfactory answer, so certain questions were put,” he added.Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant had on Wednesday questioned the protesters for raising slogans related to Khalid, alleging that the student activist had links to Afzal Guru. “The students had the right to protest against NEET paper leaks, [but] they stooped too low. Placards seeking the release of Umar Khalid, who has links to Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru, were shown at the protest at Azad Maidan. Why was the Umar Khalid issue brought into a protest over the NEET paper leak? By taking responsibility and in the nation’s interest, Dharmendra Pradhan ji gave his resignation. We need to awaken nationalism in our students, so they do not disturb communal harmony,” Sawant has said.
