There is a continuous tension in West Bengal over Ramnavami, but Jadavpur University of Kolkata has become a focal point regarding Ram Navami. Actually, Jadavpur University has banned celebrating Ram Navami in the campus. The university administration has refused to allow the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP).
Jadavpur University issued a statement saying that “in the absence of the Vice Chancellor, it is not possible to allow Ram Navami celebrations inside the campus.” Last week, Bhaskar Gupta, interim vice -chancellor of Jadavpur University, was given the Governor of West Bengal, C.V. Anand Bose had removed due to failure to stop violence in the campus and disregard the orders.
Earlier, the Hindu Students Union and other students had announced a plan to celebrate the festival on the university campus. However, this decision of the administration is dissatisfied with the organizers. This step is important because Jadavpur University is considered to be the center of leftist politics in Kolkata.
Last month, the minister’s car was vandalized.
Last month, students staged a huge protest at the university campus during the visit of State Education Minister Struant Basu. Some students allegedly surrounded them, attacked them and even vandalized the minister’s car. Somasuriya Banerjee, the organizer and student of the Ramnavami ceremony, said, “We are committed to celebrating Ram Navami inside the campus this year. We were initially allowed last year, but it was rejected due to protest. This time, we have sought permission and are adamant on our decision.”
Banerjee also questioned the university’s decision to allow iftar party to organize a party a few days ago. He said, “This time we will not back down.” “If people can celebrate Iftar inside the university, then why can’t we celebrate Ram Navami? We will take legal action and will deal with whoever tries to stop us.”

On the other hand, Nikhil Das, president of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, says that he will continue to celebrate Ram Navami in university premises at any cost. More than 100 students will participate in this program. Prasad will be distributed. The ABP president says that he is not using any material of the university administration, so he will celebrate Ram Navami.

He also said that when there can be Rosa Iftar party inside the campus, people can come from outside, Rohingya Muslims can come, then why cannot Ram Navami be celebrated. He also convicted leftist students. Meanwhile, a member of the Students Federation of India (SFI) and a student at the University of Jadavpur said, “ABVP is organizing the program, but we will not allow them to celebrate Ram Navami inside the campus. We will also prevent outsiders from entering the campus and spreading hooliganism.”
