SFI Protests Against RSS-Linked Event at Jamia Millia Islamia

The Students' Federation of India unit at Jamia Millia Islamia criticized the university for involving with an RSS-linked event. They claimed it contradicted the institution's secular principles and ignored key Adivasi issues in favor of symbolic cultural programs. The SFI demands clarity on the university's involvement in such events.

The Students' Federation of India (SFI) unit at Jamia Millia Islamia has voiced strong objections to the university's involvement in what they allege is an RSS-linked cultural event. The SFI claims that the initiative counters the secular and democratic ethos that Jamia stands for.

In an official statement, the SFI criticized the university administration for setting up a 'welcome gate' for the Janjati Sanskritik Samagam, an event they argue is part of a broader political maneuver aimed at communalizing and appropriating Adivasi identities.

The SFI has urged the Jamia administration to clarify its stance on supporting such events, demanding a reaffirmation of the university's commitment to democratic and secular values amid their ongoing opposition to RSS-associated activities on campus.
