Court Stays Delhi Univ Student’s Expulsion Over Slogan On A Wall, But Crackdown On Student Dissent Grows Nationwide
Court Stays Delhi Univ Student’s Expulsion Over Slogan On A Wall, But Crackdown On Student Dissent Grows Nationwide
Delhi University’s expulsion of an MA Student for writing a slogan calling for protests against a government examination agency on a campus wall—stayed by the Delhi High Court—reflects a larger clampdown on freedom of speech and activism across India’s educational institutions. The university proctor, Rajni Abbi, said the university faced a dilemma in dealing with wall writing with the Delhi High Court ‘coming after them’ if they do not take punitive action and students protesting if they do.
