Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) opposes

The Muslim students initially requested early leave from the college for Ramazan prayers, which was denied due to institutional rules. Consequently, they performed namaz in the classroom. Other college students, along with members of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and ABVP, raised their voice against this incident. They warned that if namaz offering is not stopped, Hindu students would also start religious activities in the classroom. Yet, the officials have not taken any action.

Editorial Perspectives

• Such incidents occur because it is known that no action is taken against offering namaz anywhere. If such incidents are to be stopped, the Police must start taking strict action.

• Please note that those who vehemently oppose the display of Deity Saraswati’s picture in classrooms, do not utter a word against those offering namaz in the classroom.
