Graffiti in black proclaiming ‘Azad Kashmir’ and ‘Free Palestine’ was seen on a wall near gate number three of the university. Two students were injured after the car of state Minister Bratya Basu and another accompanying vehicle allegedly grazed past them during a left protest on the campus on March 1. An FIR has been lodged against Basu, and professor and TMC leader Om Prakash Mishra in connection with the violence. SFI and AIDSO along with leading professor unions – JUTA and ABUTA – claimed that around 30 police personnel in plainclothes entered the campus at around 1 pm on Monday shortly after Mishra arrived and stayed till the afternoon hours when the classes were over. A senior university official said the police were not called to the campus and the authorities had no information about their presence inside. \”We don’t welcome the presence of police inside the campus, uniformed or in plain dress. We and several senior teachers took up the issue with university authorities and also persuaded the agitating students not to escalate the issue,\” said SFI leader Souryadipto Roy.
