ABVP submits memorandum demanding cancellation of documentary screening at NLSIU Bengaluru

Wednesday, 23 September 2026, 07:35 · 1 min read

India's Hindu-nationalist student organisation ABVP (Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad) has submitted a memorandum to Union Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal calling for the permanent cancellation of a documentary screening about jailed activist Umar Khalid at the National Law School of India University (NLSIU) in Bengaluru, one of India's premier law schools. The group also demanded a high-level inquiry into both the event's organisers and the university administration for granting permission for the screening. Meghwal had visited NLSIU the same day on a pre-scheduled invitation from the university's Legal Services Clinic, though his presence drew attention amid the ongoing controversy surrounding the planned screening.
