Aligarh, (PTK): At the campus of Aligarh Muslim University, a map of India was seen but it didn’t include the state of Jammu and Kashmir. Striking a controversy, the university defended the banner claiming that it was made by the drama society for an anti-partition drama which was supposed to take place at the university.
“The poster was made by the drama society for an anti-partition drama. As soon as the teacher-in-charge got the information, the university took action. We pulled down the posters and postponed the drama,” AMU PRO Shafey Kidwai said.
The university further said that the banners have nothing to do with the politics of the country. However, the banners have been pulled down ever since the controversy. As per reports, the skewed maps were also put up on the main gate of the university.
Further details are awaited.
