Babri Masjid Slogan Scribbled On JNU Campus Walls

Jawaharlal Nehru University instructed on Friday to repaint all of the campus walls in order to remove any graffiti or slogans that had appeared on them the day before, calling for the reconstruction of the Babri Masjid. During a meeting with a committee tasked with investigating recurring instances of contentious sloganeering and wall defacement, the administration requested that officials increase security measures in all university institutions.

The official stated that the JNU administration has mandated that all campus walls be painted over in order to get rid of any type of slogan or graffiti, and that CCTV cameras will be placed in certain spots. Students at the university claim that the administration white-washed the walls with the message written on them on Thursday night. But they also said that two prime ministers' and independence fighters' sketches were erased during the process.

"NSUI-JNU firmly condemns this malicious, disruptive act of defacement and maligning our organisation's name. We are absolutely clear that defacing an organization's wall sketches is not a way to give any socio-political message. We also demand the university administration conduct an impartial investigation into the matter," the National Students' Union of India (NSUI) said in a statement.
