Freed India student leader delivers rousing speech

                     


An Indian student leader facing sedition charges has called for "freedom in India" in a rousing speech to students at Jawaharlal Nehru University, after being released on bail.  Kanhaiya Kumar received a hero's welcome at the JNU campus in New Delhi on Thursday night and addressed a large gathering of students and faculty members, cautioning authorities from suppressing freedom of speech and the right to dissent. 
"The struggle is long. The more you try to suppress us, the higher we will rise ... we are not asking for freedom from India, but asking for freedom in India."
