Jawaharlal Nehru University Students Union (JNUSU) president Kanhaiya Kumar is still worrying a few people—especially a little-known right wing Hindu organization called Veer Sena and bunch of others. According to a report in The Hindu, Niranjan Pal of the Veer Sena is worried about the “treatment that will be meted out to his patients” once he completes his doctorate.
“We know that he (Kanhaiya Kumar) is pursuing his PhD from JNU and he is threatening to break the nation to pieces. How can a person like him serve the patients who will approach him after he becomes a doctor?” asked Niranjan Pal of the Veer Sena.
Veer Sena is part of a group of right wing organizations that have vowed to stop Kanhaiya Kumar from addressing a crowd in Mumbai on 23 April.
When he was informed the difference between Doctor of Medicine and Doctorate and that the JNUSU president wasn’t studying medicine but literature, the leader refused to budge from his point.
“So? He will become a doctor anyway and patients will approach him,” he remarked.
The ‘patriotic and devout Hindu organization’ held a press conference in Mumbai to warn Kanhaiya of dire consequences should he enter the city.
“This is not an action, but this is a reaction. Those who are indulging in anti-national activities should be stopped and we will do whatever is in our power to do so,” said Sushil Tiwari, the national president of Swarajya Hindu Sena according to the report in The Hindu.
Reportedly, Vaibhav Raut of Hindu Govansh Raksha Samiti said that Kanhaiya should be banned from entering Mumbai as he will “spoil the city’s atmosphere”.
“According to us he should not be allowed to live in India,” he added.
Advocate Jayesh Tikhe remarked that constitutional methods would be used to stop Kumar from addressing his supporters in Mumbai.
