A controversy erupted a few days ago after members of a right-wing group accused the university administration of “denying permission” to students of a particular community to organise a ‘Holi Milan’ function on campus.

The students, along with the office-bearers of the Karni Sena outfit, on Thursday submitted a memorandum to Aligarh Additional District Magistrate seeking the intervention of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the matter.

After a protest from a section of students, the AMU administration clarified there was a typing error and that chicken biryani would not be discontinued.

Could one even talk about BHU, AMU, Vishwa Bharati or Jamia Malia Islamia without referring to Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya, Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, Rabindranath Tagore or Zakir Husain?

Police and university authorities have been maintaining a strict vigil in all areas where students gather, including the Maulana Azad library, the officer said.

The police said that checking at all sensitive areas in and around the campus has been ongoing since last evening all top varsity officials including the Vice Chancellor received the email.

For AMU to harbour students who engage in anti-India, anti-Hindu rhetoric is a betrayal of its own ethos and the taxpayers who fund it

Responding to the incident, AMU authorities initiated an internal investigation while the local police have also launched a probe into the matter.

The university traces its origin to the founding of the Madrasatul Uloom in Aligarh by Sir Syed on May 24, 1875. On January 7, 1877, the Madrasatul Uloom became MAO College. Then, after the AMU Act was passed in 1920, nearly four decades later, MAO College got its current name.
