The incident occurred on November 19 at Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agriculture Science and Technology’s undergraduate hostels in the Ganderbal district.

The students were allegedly abused and threatened by the students overrooting for India during the final, which was clinched by Australia by six wickets.

The complainant, a resident of Punjab, also alleged that the students shouted pro-Pakistan slogans such as ‘Jeeve Jeeve Pakistan’, creating an atmosphere of fear among non-local students at the university.

The police have filed a first information report (FIR) under Section 13 of the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act, 1967 (UAPA) and Sections 505 (inciting communal violence) and 506 (criminal intimidation) in connection with the incident.

The investigation is ongoing, and the police will inform the public about any developments.
