Police detain 4 SFI students for planning of screening BBC’s doc on Jamia
The Delhi Police Wednesday said they have detained four students after the Left-affiliated Students’ Federation of India (SFI) announcement plan to screen a controversial BBC documentary on Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the Jamia Millia Islamia campus.
The university administration said the screening will not be allowed and that they are taking all measures to prevent people and organisations with a “vested interest to destroy the peaceful academic atmosphere of the university”.
A Delhi Police official said four SFI members were detained, just hours before the screening planned for 6 pm by the student body. The SFI called for a protest at 4 pm against the detention.
