The documentary, Prisoner No. 626710 Is Present, was screened on the university campus on Wednesday, according to a statement from ABVP. The student organisation said it had emailed a representation to the vice-chancellor seeking an inquiry and appropriate action against those responsible.
ABVP described the screening as political propaganda and argued that political events on university premises could undermine campuses as places for academic discussion and debate. That characterisation is the organisation’s position; the source report did not include a response from the event’s organisers or from the university administration.
ABVP said it had not received a reply from the vice-chancellor at the time of its statement. The request now places the university’s account of the event and its authorisation at the centre of the dispute.
