Kolkata:
A week after threatening to behead those who raised pro-Pakistan slogans, Bengal BJP chief Dilip Ghosh has warned Jadavpur university students that if they dare to step out of campus, he would have them thrashed.
"The Jadavpur University students are sitting inside campus and shouting slogan. I dare them to come out," Mr Ghosh said at a meeting in Sundarbans on Saturday. "We will thrash them so the forget their ancestors' names. You will eat food here and shout 'Pakistan Zindabad'? We shall beat you with shoes and straighten you up," he went on to add.
On Wednesday, Mr Ghosh had visited Birbhum district, which had witnessed communal tension over a social media post against the Prophet. At a street corner rally there, he said those whose raised slogans in India supporting Pakistan should be made "6 inches shorter" or, in other words, beheaded, and put "6 feet under" or buried.
Slogans in favour of Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru were raised last month at a rally held by JU students meant to express solidarity with their counterparts in Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru University, who were protesting against the arrest of union leader Kanhaiya Kumar on charges of sedition.
But JU Vice-Chancellor Suranjan Das had said the varsity would not file any First Information Report against students as it has always stood for "freedom of expression, freedom of speech and autonomy".
"We will solve the problem through discussion... That has been JU's tradition," Mr Das had said.
The union home ministry, however, had sought a report on the alleged "anti-India sloganeering" inside the JU campus.
The organisers of the meeting had said the controversial remarks could have been made by outsiders and "fringe elements".
