In a tumultuous turn of events at Jadavpur University in Bengal, the live-streaming of the consecration ceremony of Ayodhya's Ram Mandir faced an abrupt halt, resulting in a clash between ABVP members and university security. The incident occurred on Monday (January 22) during the historic event, with nearly 50 ABVP members present on the campus. The disruption led to a scuffle, causing injuries to the university's pro-vice chancellor, Amitabha Dutta, and a security guard.

Despite attempts by Dutta to calm the situation and his request for silence, the ABVP members visibly infuriated, began chanting "Jai Shri Ram" slogans. The confrontation escalated, and the clash ensued, leaving the pro-vice chancellor and a security guard with minor injuries.

Following the incident, the Students Federation of India (SFI) organized a protest rally and held a seminar condemning any efforts to alter history and divide society. Speakers at the seminar criticized what they deemed a fascist regime attempting to reshape historical narratives.

A university official, distancing the institute from the controversy, stated that the university has no involvement in programs organized by any group unless they disrupt peace on the campus or violate the academic atmosphere. The official emphasized the smooth conduct of semester exams but refrained from commenting on student outfit-organized programs.

Expressing concern over the incident, the All Bengal University Teachers' Association (ABUTA) penned a letter to West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, Education Minister Bratya Basu, and Governor CV Ananda Bose. The letter voiced apprehensions about attempts to conduct religious activities on the campus, arguing that such activities violate the secular spirit and lack relevance to education and public interest.
