New Delhi, Feb 17 (IBNS): Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday said he has sought time from President Pranab Mukherjee over the situation in Delhi which he said was 'fast deteriorating'.

"Delhi law and order situation fast deteriorating. Have sought time from Hon'ble President to discuss the situation," Kejriwal tweeted.

Kejriwal made the remark on a day when in a repetition of Monday's images, a group of lawyers allegedly attacked students and journalists at the Patiala House court premises here on Wednesday.

The attack occurred ahead of a hearing on the case related to Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) student leader Kanhaiya Kumar.

He was arrested last week on sedition charges.

Kumar was also attacked when he was brought to a Delhi court for hearing a case against him on Wednesday.

He was reportedly kicked and punched by the attackers.

He has been sent to judicial custody till Mar 2

The JNU is currently facing protests and counter protests with the police cracking down on students over the anti-India slogans raised earlier to mark the death anniversary of Parliament Attack convict Afzal Guru on its campus in the national capital.

JNU teachers, students and media persons were allegedly attacked by lawyers in New Delhi's Patiala Court on Monday.
