JNU has adopted nationalism, leftist agenda on campus won't succeed: VHP

The VHP on Saturday described as "coward leftist" those who wrote anti-Brahmin slogans in the JNU and asserted that such activities will never succeed in disrupting "peace and amity" on the campus. It said that the university has adopted the idea of "nationalism and social harmony" which cannot be undermined by such slogans. In a video statement, VHP working president Alok Kumar also said he was confident that the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) administration and Delhi police will conduct a probe into the incident and take legal action against them. On Thursday, several walls of a School Of International Studies building on JNU campus was found defaced with anti-Brahmin slogans, photos of which were shared on social media. Some of the slogans on the university walls were "Brahmins leave the campus", "there will be blood", "Brahmin Bharat chhodo", and "Brahmins-Baniyas, we are coming for you. We will avenge." Slamming those behind these slogans, Kumar said, "JNU is a strange wor

After Gurugram shows cancelled, Kunal Kamra dares VHP to denounce Godse

Days after his shows at a Gurugram bar were called off following threats by right-wing organisations, stand-up comic Kunal Kamra on Sunday wrote an open letter to the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP), challenging it to condemn Mahatma Gandhi's assassin Nathuram Godse. The comedian, who has criticised the BJP-led NDA government over a number of issues in the past, proclaimed himself as "a bigger Hindu" than the VHP as he doesn't earn his living by fear mongering and issuing threats. "I chant 'Jai Shri Sita-Ram' and 'Jai Radha Krishna' loudly and with pride. If you really are the children of India, write and send (messages of) 'Godse Murdabad'. If you don't, you will be perceived as anti-Hindu and supporters of terrorism. "Don't tell me you consider Godse as God? If that is true, keep getting my shows cancelled in the future too. I'll just be happy to have emerged a bigger Hindu than you in this test. Whatever I'll do, I'll eat my hard-earned bread as I'm a bigger Hindu than you. I feel it
