ABVP thrashes FTII student for not saying ‘Jai Narendra Modi’

"... “Why did you invite the Kabir Kala Manch? Are you a Naxalite?” the ABVP activist asked Ajayan. “When I said no, he asked me which party I support. I said I am an artist and do not have political affiliations,” Ajayan told The Hindu. “If you want to prove you are not a Naxalite, then say Jai Narendra Modi,” the ABVP activist stated. When Ajayan refused to do so, the activist shouted, “He is a Naxalite,” after which he was surrounded by other ABVP activists, who started assaulting him, Ajayan has alleged. Four other FTII students were also injured. “We knew the ABVP members watched Anand Patwardhan’s film Jai Bhim Comarade which was screened before the KKM performance. I thought they were ready for a healthy discussion,” Ajayan said..."
