In India, why does the 'K' word always equal controversy? The latest attempt to block a film on Kashmir is at Pune's Symbiosis University - ironically known for its communications department. Meant to be screened here was filmmaker Sanjay Kak's documentary Jash e Azadi - not only has his documentary been blocked, the entire seminar has now been cancelled after protests from the BJP student wing and Panun Kashmir.
