Student groups screen BBC documentary on PM Modi, The Kashmir Files film at Hyderabad varsity

Hyderabad, 27/1: The Students Federation of India (SFI) on Thursday organised the screening of the controversial BBC documentary on the 2002 Gujarat riots at the University of Hyderabad (UoH) here even as the RSS’ student wing, ABVP showed the controversial film The Kashmir Files, on the campus.

The Fraternity Movement in UoH campus, a students’ group, had earlier organised the screening of the BBC documentary India: The Modi Question on January 21, at the varsity campus without prior notice or permission, prompting the University authorities to seek a report on the incident for taking necessary action.

The screening of the documentary India: The Modi Question, access to which was recently blocked by the Centre on social media platforms, was earlier announced by the SFI at the university campus.

“Glimpses from the successful screening of the documentary India: The Modi Question organised by SFI HCU on the Republic Day following the call of SFI CEC. More than 400 students turned up for the screening, rejecting the false propaganda and the attempts of ABVP to create unrest and the administration to disrupt the screening of the documentary. SFI-HCU salutes the student community who have stood for freedom of expression and campus democracy,” a social media post by SFI HCU said, tagging the photos
