Exclusive: JNU students did not raise anti-national slogans, Kanhaiya Kumar tells News Nation

A month ago, he was known as JNSU president only inside the JNU campus. Then he faces allegations of being a 'traitor' and gets arrested on sedition charges. He is then criticized and presented as a 'villain'. But after several twists and turns, he comes out of jail as a 'hero' and his voice becomes the voice of Opposition.

He is Kanhaiya Kumar, who has now become popular. In an exclusive interview, News Nation spoke to the JNSU leader. Here are the highlights of the interview:
