After JNU, DU, Jamia, PU, Jadavpur University, the controversy related to showing the BBC documentary on PM Narendra Modi’s role during the Gujarat riots has now reached Maharashtra. Today (January 28, Saturday) this film is to be screened at Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) in Mumbai at 7 pm. But the institute has made it clear that strict action will be taken if there is any protest against it. The students had demanded the screening of this film. The institute rejected this demand.
Tata Institute of Social Sciences has issued a notice. It is written in this that some students of the institute have already planned the screening of BBC documentary film on PM Modi’s role during the Gujarat riots. Because of this documentary, a disturbed atmosphere has already been created in some institutions of the country. Along with this, some students have also organized a meeting in the institute to protest against the screening of this documentary. Keeping all these things in mind, the students of the institute are informed that the institute does not allow the screening of this documentary.
If any such action is taken, disciplinary action will be taken from the side of the institute.
‘When there is no plan for screening, what is the point of notice?’
On the other hand, some leaders of the TISS student organization say that the students in the institution have not made any such planning regarding the screening of this documentary that there is a need to give notice to the institution to stop it. Information about the screening of this documentary being organized by the Progressive Student Forum is coming to the fore but we are not associated with it.
The film is based on Modi’s role as CM during the Gujarat riots
