Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) in the national capital Delhi, never seems to stray far from controversy, but this time, it’s a professor whose issue has made headlines.

An assistant professor at JNU has alleged that his car was vandalised and that stone were thrown at his house as well by unknown assailants for organizing an event on campus in memory of the Sukma and Kupwara martyrs.

In Sukma district of Chhattisgarh on Monday, 25 personnel of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) had been killed in an ambush by Maoists, and a few days later 3 soldiers were killed in an alleged suicide attack on an Army camp in Kupwara in Jammu and Kashmir.

“I had parked my car near Periyar hostel, which is opposite to the students’ union office. I do not suspect anyone, but I have filed a case at Vasant Kunj police station,” Singh added.

The JNU students union however claims that Singh is trying to gain “cheap publicity”.

“Buddha Singh made a diversionary statement for cheap publicity that his car has been vandalised because he organised a program on Sukma. The RSS always resorts to such tactics to divert attention, so that tough questions are not put to Home Minister Rajnath Singh,” JNUSU president Mohit Kumar Pandey said in a statement.

According to reports, Professor Singh is associated with the RSS.

Singh has registered an FIR and the students union has demanded that a proper inquiry be launched by the police
