Debate With Arnab LIVE: Dimagi Naxals Come Out In Open Support For Umar Khalid

Debate With Arnab LIVE: Dimagi Naxals Come Out In Open Support For Umar Khalid A fresh political row erupts after Karnataka Congress president B. K. Hariprasad called jailed activist Umar Khalid a “nationalist” while reacting to ABVP’s opposition to a proposed documentary screening at Bengaluru’s NLSIU. In this debate, we examine the Congress response, the remarks by senior party leaders including Digvijaya Singh, the NLSIU documentary controversy, and the allegations and legal proceedings linked to Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam in the Delhi-riots larger-conspiracy case. Umar Khalid was arrested under the UAPA in September 2020 and remains an undertrial. The Supreme Court denied bail to Khalid and Sharjeel Imam in January 2026, while making clear that the merits of the prosecution’s allegations will be decided during trial; charges are yet to be framed. Hariprasad’s “nationalist” comment was made in the context of the NLSIU documentary row and ABVP’s demand to stop the screening. #UmarKhalid #Congress #BKHariPrasad #DigvijayaSingh #RahulGandhi #UmarKhalidCase #SharjeelImam #DelhiRiotsCase #NLSIU #ABVP #CampusPolitics #CongressVsBJP #PoliticalNews #IndiaNews #BreakingNews #RepublicWorld #RepublicTV #BreakingNews #RepublicNews #IndiaNews #LiveNews #RepublicExclusive #RepublicWorldLive #ArnabGoswami #RepublicDigital #NationFirst Watch More ➡️ Videos On:    / @republicdefence   Visit Now ➡️ Full Story On: www.republicworld.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Republic TV is India's no.1 English news channel since its launch.
