Defeat communal fascist politics of the RSS-ABVP!!
Uphold secular ethos of the campus!! (July 21, 2007)
A poster put up in the canteen of SSS-II by the ABVP, true to the communal fascist tradition of the RSS, shows a map of India being tied with barbed wires by two stereotypical Muslim men on both sides. The poster goes completely against the secular culture of the campus and is highly condemnable.
This kind of a poster, however, is not unexpected from an organisation like the ABVP, whose parent organisations – the RSS-BJP have carried out their fascistic designs on minorities in India ever since their formation. Nothing better can be expected from the ideology that demolished the Babri Masjid, brutally murdered Australian missionary Graham Stains and his two minor sons, attacked Churches in Gujarat and Orissa and carried out the bloody carnage of Muslims in Gujarat.
The poster is another example of the communal hatred rooted in the ideology of the Sangh Parivar, articulated by none less than the former long serving RSS supremo M.S. Golwalkar way back in 1939 in a book titled, "We or our Nationhood Defined". He wrote “the foreign races in Hindustan must either adopt the Hindu culture and language, must learn to respect and hold in reverence Hindu religion, must entertain no idea but those of the glorification of the Hindu race and culture, i.e., of the Hindu nation and must lose their separate existence to merge in the Hindu race, or may stay in the country, wholly subordinated to the Hindu Nation, claiming nothing, deserving no privileges, far less any preferential treatment -- not even citizen's rights.”
The text of the poster on the other hand is extremely ironical, which says “Save North East’s demography & unique culture from illegal Bangladeshi infiltration.” This shedding of crocodile’s tears for the North East would certainly have enraged Golwalkar, who propagated that there should be no tolerance for any unique culture, or any culture other than ‘Hindu culture” for that matter.

The secular consciousness of the students of JNU has defeated the communal fascist politics of the RSS-ABVP time and again. SFI appeals to the student community to be vigilant against any attempt to disturb the secular and progressive ethos of the campus.
