You stop us at one place, we spring up everywhere!
The recent hooliganism by ABVP goons to stall the screening of Nakul
Singh Sawhney's documentary film, Muzaffarnagar Baaqi Hai, at Delhi
University's Kirori Mal College, is but part of a broader game-plan to
try and silence voices of truth, justice, dissent.
As the students of FTII continue their almost two-month long protest
against a puppet chairman & puppet society members thrust on them by
Modi Sarkar. As several cultural and educational institutions in the
country face a scorched-earth policy. As dissenting authors are driven
to declare 'death of the author'. We unite and rise.
25th August is the death anniversary of Shubhradeep Chakravorty, who
throughout his filmmaking life stood up against fascist forces and
dared saffron terror. We dedicate our screenings to him.
