ABVP protests against ‘anti-nationals’

New Delhi, February 24

Hundreds of ABVP supporters today marched from Ramlila Maidan to Jantar Mantar to denounce “anti -nationals” and demanded strong action against the JNU students who allegedly raised “anti-India” slogans.

Waving the Tricolour, participants in the march raised slogans like “one who wants to live in Hindustan must chant Vande mataram”.

Targeting the JNU, they said, “Na Marxwad, na Maowad, sabse upar rashtrawad” (No Marxism, no Maoism, above all is nationalism).

Addressing the protesters at Jantar Mantar, Binay Bidre, National General Secretary of the ABVP, the students' wing of RSS, condemned the controversial event at the JNU on February 9 where alleged anti-national slogans were raised at a protest against the hanging of Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru.

“We cannot tolerate anyone raising slogans that threaten the unity of the country. The ABVP will not tolerate such anti-national forces,” he said.

The activists also held up banners with messages such as ‘Our JNU, our pride - JNU for Nationalism’. — PTI
