JNU ABVP leaders resign amidst “anti-national” debate

“We can’t be mouthpiece of such a govt. which has unleashed oppression on student community…,” said Narwal in his Facebook post that has now gone viral.

Even as Jawaharlal Nehru University Students’ Union president Kanhaiya Kumar, who had been arrested last week on charge of sedition, was sent to a 14-day judicial custody on Wednesday and JNU remained in the thick of “anti-national” controversy, three office bearers of BJP affiliated Akhil Bhartiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) in the university resigned from their posts in protest against the Central government’s alleged oppression on student community.

Pradeep Narwal resigned from the post of the joint secretary of ABVP’s JNU unit, while Rahul Yadav and Ankit Hans resigned as president and secretary of ABVP unit in the School of Social Sciences.

“We can’t be mouthpiece of such a govt. which has unleashed oppression on student community…,” said Narwal in his Facebook post that has now gone viral.

Narwal also condemned the anti-national slogans raised on February 9 in the campus and demanded action against those responsible for it.

The following is the full unedited text of Narwal’s Facebook post:

#‎SAVEJNU #‎SAVEDEMOCRACY

Dear friends,

We, Pradeep, Joint Secretary, ABVP JNU UNIT, Rahul Yadav, President SSS ABVP UNIT and Ankit Hans, Secretary SSS ABVP UNIT resigning from ABVP and disassociating ourselves from any further activity of ABVP as per our difference of opinion due to the following reasons:

1. Current JNU incident.

2. Long standing difference of opinion with party on MANUSMIRITI and Rohith Vermula incident.

Anti-national slogans on Feb. 9 in university campus were very unfortunate and heart breaking. Whosoever responsible for that act must be punished as per the law but the way NDA government tackling the whole issue, the oppression on Professors, repeated lawyer attacks on Media and Kanhaiya kumar in court premises is unjustifiable and we think there is a difference between interrogation and crushing ideology and branding entire left as Anti-national.

All you want to know about the JNU row!

People are circulating #‎SHUTDOWNJNU but I think they must circulate #‎SHUTDOWNZEENEWS which has demeaned this world class institution, this biased ZEE news media generalize and related the act done by few people to the whole student community of JNU. JNU is considered as one of the progressive and democratic institution where we can see intermingling of people from lower to upper income strata of the society, notion of equality.

We can’t be mouthpiece of such a govt. which has unleashed oppression on student community, legislature like OP Sharma, govt. which has legitimized the action of right wing fascist forces either in Patiala house court or in front of JNU north gate. Every day we see people assemble at front gate with Indian Flag to beat JNU student, well this is hooliganism not nationalism, you can’t do anything in the name of nation, there is a difference between nationalism and hooliganism.

Anti-India slogans can’t be tolerated in campus or any part of country, JNUSU& some left organization are saying that nothing has happened in the campus but here we want to stress that veiled persons in the event organized by former DSU persons shouted slogans BHARAT TERE TUKADDE HONGE of which there is concrete evidence in videos, so we demand any person responsible for the slogans should be punished as per the law, and in this whole process we also condemn media trial which has culminated in Anti-JNU sentiments throughout the country. Today we all must stand together to save JNU which has given us identity, we need to come across party lines to save reputation of this institution, to save future of JNUites as more than 80% of students don’t belong to any political party so let’s unite to save this JNU culture.
