ABVP

"On 4th September afternoon at Dr. Shivaram Karanth Government First Grade College, Bellare, in Sullia Taluk of Dakshina Kannada district, a group of students hurled abusive words against Muslim girls, who were sitting in their classrooms, and assaulted one of them in college campus. The victim Sajida (name changed), claimed a group of Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad activists dragged her in front of other students, thrashed and pushed her to the ground.

"Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) cadres on Friday ransacked a missionary school at Dumka, demanding that it be shut to show solidarity with Anna Hazare's fast, while their counterparts in Ranchi observed a day-long educational strike, taking out bike rallies and asking students to join them. Around 12 ABVP workers barged inside St Joseph's School around 10am and entered into a heated argument with school Principal Piyush Marandi, ordering him to shut the institute. When the principal refused, ABVP cadres broke chairs and tables in his office.

"Watch this scene: SAR Geelani is invited to participate in a seminar on ‘Communalism, Fascism and Democracy, Rhetoric and Reality’ at Delhi University. The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP)’s goons – about 50 students – do what they are best at: vandalise the venue, hurl abuses and even spit on him. Geelani had not picked up a loudspeaker and started screaming in the street corners to get people all charged up. This was within the confines of a university conference room and a serious discussion.

"Less than a year after Professor Sabharwal's was allegedly murdered by students of Ram Madhav college in Madhya Pradesh’s Ujjain, another similar has been reported from the city. Agitating members of the BJP-affiliated ABVP beat up the Principal of the city’s Maharaja College, Ashish Mehta, on Tuesday for allegedly taking action against students caught cheating in an exam. “They barged in and broke furniture in my room. They asked me to allow whatever their friends wanted to do. When I refused, they locked the room and beat me up,” recalls Mehta.
