A delegation of Akhil Bharatiya Vidhyarti Parishad (ABVP) met the Superintendent of Police of Dehradun on Thursday and strongly condemned the derogatory remarks of the students union president of Doon University against the Indian Army.
The delegation was led by ABVP leader and former president of the DAV PG College students union, Paras Goyal. He alleged that on March 1, the students union president of Doon University had termed Indian Army rapist of women in Kashmir. He claimed that this highly objectionable remark was made when the students union president and some other students sought permission to organise a student parliament wherein a seminar on lines of JNU and Ramjas College was to be held for discussing sensitive issues. The ABVP leader said that when the members of the university council and vice chancellor objected to holding of such a seminar the students union president got agitated and termed the Indian army as rapist. He said that the one insulting the army refused to retract from her statement despite VC’s order. Goyal said that the delegation of ABVP which included students of Doon University are very agitated on such derogatory comments and requested the police to look into the issue and initiate action so that the academic environment of the university is not vitiated. The delegation included Naveen Rajoria, Satyendra Chauhan, Himalaya Ramola, Gaurav Tomar and others.
