Days after an FIR was registered against 50 intellectuals for writing an open letter to PM Modi on lynching, in a similar incident, six students of Mahatma Gandhi Antarrashtriya Hindi Viswavidyalaya (MGAHV) Wardha, have been expelled for organising an event for writing letters to PM Modi on lynching and lock down Kashmir.

Student activists told National Herald that they wanted to highlight the issues of mob lynching, selling out of PSUs, lock down in Kashmir and shielding of the leaders who have been accused of rape among others by writing letters to the PM but varsity administration has expelled them, citing “violation of model code of conduct”.

A letter issued by MGAHV administration says that the students have been expelled on the grounds of “violation of model code of conduct” and “interference to administrative process”.
