After hinting at action against
Jammu University vice-chancellor professor R.D. Sharma for banning the Akhil
Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) in all educational institutions in the
region, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Friday accused him of misusing his
autonomy and said that his attitude was not acceptable.
"You want freedom for
students to raise anti-India slogans in JNU, but you don't want the JU (Jammu
University) students to say Bharat Mata ki Jai? That kind of attitude by the VC
is unacceptable," BJP general secretary Ram Madhav told the media here.
"His attitude towards the
students is not right. Every right thinking person should oppose his attitude
of banning student organisations in the campus," he added.
Stating that the BJP has conveyed
its strong opinion against the vice-chancellor's attitude to the concerned
people in the state government, Madhav accused the former of misusing his
autonomy and asserted that student organisations must be allowed to carry on
activities in the campus.
The BJP general secretary had slammed
Sharma's 'obstinate behavior' and said that action would be taken accordingly.
"BJP ministers take up Jammu
Univ VC obstinate behaviour against ABVP. Action wl b taken (sic)," Madhav
tweeted.
The entry of the ABVP has been
banned in all educational institutions in the Jammu region. The ban on ABVP
comes in the backdrop of BJP sharing power with PDP in the state.
It is reported that the ABVP had
sought permission from Government Women College Parade, Jammu, for holding the
national executive committee meet, which was out rightly rejected, even though
Deputy Chief Minister and senior BJP leader Nirmal Singh was the guest for the
event.
Meanwhile, the Jammu and Kashmir
BJP leaders have come at the forefront in ABVP's defence.
State legislative assembly speaker
Kavinder Gupta has termed the move as unfortunate and related it to depriving
the student organisation of its political rights.
