The Jawaharlal Nehru University released an official press release clearing the air on the subject a day after Leftist student organizations attacked tenants of Kaveri Hostel during Ram Navami celebrations. The administration has issued an appeal to the students, urging them to “show restraint and allow the academic atmosphere at JNU to develop without any external distractions.”

The attack on Ram Navami celebrations in the Kaveri Hostel on Sunday was brought to the attention of Jawaharlal Nehru University on Monday, April 11. The JNU administration has issued an official statement condemning the ruckus after various versions of the incident emerged in the media from members of the RSS-affiliated Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) and Left-wing student organizations such as the National Students Union of India (NSUI) and the All India Students’ Association (AISA).

“On April 10, 2022, there was a skirmish between student groups on the JNU Campus.” It was Rama Navami, and the Kaveri Hostel students arranged a Hawan, to which some students objected. “The Hawan was peacefully completed after the wardens and Dean of Students attempted to calm the situation,” the statement said.

“However, some students were not pleased with this, and shortly after, at supper, a disturbance was made over there, with heated disagreements followed by an altercation between both groups in the Kaveri Hostel,” the statement said. The student committee is in charge of the mess, and the administration has no say in what is served. When there was a controversy among students, the Wardens explained the scene and published a notice stating “offering non-vegetarian food is not prohibited.”

“The warden issued a note appealing for peace and explaining concerns,” the statement said, referring to the administration’s quick actions to settle the situation. The JNU administration jumped into action right away. Later in the evening Prof. Santishree Dhulipadi Pandit, Vice-Chancellor of JNU, paid a visit to Kaveri Hostel to assess the situation. JNU has a long and illustrious history of educating and nurturing generations of students. It has traditionally been associated with scholarly and intellectual pursuits, as well as a strong culture of robust debates and discussions.”

What occurred on the night of Ram Navami?

On the occasion of Ram Navami, some members of the ABVP reportedly held a Hawan and Puja on the JNU campus on Sunday, April 10. The ABVP has accused the National Students Union of India (NSUI) and left-wing student organizations of preventing them from conducting the Hawan and Puja at the Kaveri Hostel on the JNU campus. Leftist students, on the other hand, claim that ABVP members fought with the mess management when non-vegetarian food was provided on Ram Navami day.

The celebrations ended in a hostile atmosphere, with numerous ABVP members hurt, including seven who suffered serious injuries.

Delay In Majiwada Overbridge Repair Causes Chaos In Traffic

On Wednesday, hours of traffic jams caused by major delays in Majiwada Overbridge repair work caused inconvenience to commuters in Thane and irritated both residents and drivers from outside the city.

The repairs were supposed to be finished between April 16 and 17, but obstacles caused the closure to go far into the afternoon. This unanticipated delay made Majiwada’s already renowned traffic problems worse by causing extreme gridlock.

Since the continuing repair work blocked traffic from Ghodbunder to JNPT, Nashik, and Mumbai, the authorities had to stop the bridge climb in front of the Broadway Petrol Pump. Drivers were thus compelled to look for alternate routes, which increased the pandemonium on the highways.

The closure continued on Wednesday till 1 pm, despite efforts to reroute traffic via the slip lane in front of Majiwada Petrol Pump and Kapurbavadi Circle, making commuters’ problems with traffic more worse.

Although the Public Works Department (PWD) finished the bridge repairs by 11:30 a.m. on Wednesday, the drying time of the poured cement caused an extra one to two hours of delay. As a result, the situation got worse as lengthy lines of cars extended from Ghodbunder to Thane and Mumbai, as well as from Kapurbavdi to Patlipad and the Mumbai-Nashik route to Dhokali Highland.
