The present paper throws light on the popular agitation launched by the students of Jammu in 1952 and the role of the leaders of Praja Parishad in this agitation. This paper shows how the situation became worse when on January 1952, some students of G.G.M College in Jammu demonstrated against the hoisting of the National Conference flag alongside the Indian Union flag. Therefore, the state administration came down heavily upon the student’s agitation. Though none of the Praja Parishad leaders were actively involved in the disturbances but Sheikh Mohammed Abdullah’s administration arrested many of its leaders including its President Pundit Prem Nath Dogra. However, the state authorities released the Praja Parishad leaders with the intervention of Central Minister, Gopalaswamy Ayyanger and on the advice of Pundit Jawaharlal Nehru the then Prime Minister of India.
