BJP general secretary Ram Madhav today claimed that the attitude of Jammu University Vice-Chancellor RD Sharma to ban the activities of the party's youth wing Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) was not "right" and alleged that has misused his autonomy.
"The attitude of Jammu University towards the students organisations is not right. Every right thinking person should oppose this attitude of banning students organisations in the campus. That is not acceptable.
"We have conveyed our strong opinion against his attitude to the people concerned in the government," Madhav told reporters here.
The BJP leader said students organisations should be allowed to carry on their activities inside universities.
"You all know that a University enjoys autonomy. (But) he (VC) is definitely misusing his autonomy. If there are any problems with a particular activity, the organisations can be advised to make necessary amendments," he said.
"You want students to raise anti-India slogans in JNU but you do not want the students of Jammu University to say Bharat mata ki jai," he said, adding this kind of attitude by the VC is "unacceptable".
The BJP general secretary was here for a meeting with senior state leaders of the party. He also met Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti last evening.
