BJP General Secretary CT Ravi Calls For Renaming JNU After Vivekananda
BJP general secretary CT Ravi on November 16 stirred a controversy by his tweet that suggested to rename Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) as Swami Vivekananda University. The former Karnataka minister Ravi said, "It is Swami Vivekananda who stood for the 'Idea of Bharat’." The tweet came out as the latest development after JNU students protested the unveiling of a Vivekananda statue by PM Narendra Modi in the campus.
