Digital Desk: Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), one of India's premier educational institutions, is back in the spotlight. The student community of the university is to screen the banned BBC documentary 'India: The Modi Question'.
The JNU administration issued a notice warning students not to take part in the screening, referring to it as "unauthorized and unwarranted." The students were warned that it might vitiate communal harmony on campus.
However, the left-wing student organization, AISF has announced that the screening will take place tonight at Ganga Dhaba. According to AISF, the event is being organized in memory of the 2019 incidents at Jamia Millia Islamia University, where Delhi police allegedly assaulted students protesting against the Citizenship Amendment Act {CAA}
The JNU administration said the screening was held without prior permission and advised the students to avoid attending the screening. It added that it would take all necessary steps to stop the screening.
Sajid, joint secretary of the JNU Students' Union and an AISF member, said that there was no formal procedure to take permission for such an event. If the authorities do obstruct the screening on a large screen, alternative arrangements will be made, he added.
Dhananjay, the JNUSU President supported it, saying that the students are supposed to discuss and critique such things. He raised an argument that the documentary is not allowed on campus: "This campus should be for the critical analysis and debate. Any problems that may come while it is screened will stand behind the students.
