University of Jammu Panel Recommends Dropping Jinnah, Muslim Thinkers After Student Protests

The University of Jammu in Indian-administered Kashmir has a committee recommending the removal of Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Allama Iqbal, and Syed Ahmad Khan from its MA Political Science syllabus following protests by the ABVP student group. This move arises from objections to Jinnah's portrayal as a leader of minorities, reflecting ongoing political sensitivities in the region regarding historical narratives. The recommendation awaits discussion and approval by the university's Board of Studies, indicating a key forthcoming decision on academic curriculum and ideological representation.
