The students’ union of the BJP - the ABVP - alleged that the vandalism was supported by
the Left-leaning students and demanded action from the JNU administration against those involved.
By LAKSHY DREAM FOUNDATION GLOBAL NEWS Web Desk: Controversy erupted at the Jawaharlal Nehru University once again, this time over walls being defaced with anti-Brahmin slogans. Walls of the second and third floors of the school of language and literature and doors of several faculty members have been painted with objectionable slogans.
The students’ union of the BJP - the ABVP - alleged that the vandalism was supported by the Left-leaning students and demanded action from the JNU administration against those involved.
Students claimed that the walls were vandalised with slogans against the Brahmin and the Baniya communities, photos of which have been shared widely on social media.
The JNU administration is yet to respond to the incident.
Some of the slogans on the walls read "Brahmins Leave The Campus", "There Will Be Blood", "Brahmin Bharat Chhodo" and "Brahmino-Baniyas, we are coming for you! We will avenge", reported news agency PTI.
“ABVP condemns the rampant vandalisation of academic spaces by communist goons. The communists have written abuses on the walls of JNU in the School of International Studies- II building. They have defaced chambers of free-thinking professors to intimidate them," said ABVP JNU President Rohit Kumar, reported the agency.
"We believe that academic spaces must be used for debate and discussion and not for poisoning society and students' community," he added.
A JNU teachers' body also tweeted its condemnation of the vandalism, and held the "left-liberal gang" responsible.
“While the Left-Liberal gang intimidates every dissenting voice, they appeal to elect EC representatives that 'can assert the values of mutual respect and civility, & equal & just treatment of all.' 'civility' & 'mutual respect.' Highly deplorable act of vandalism!" the JNU Teachers' Forum wrote on Twitter.
