The walls of Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) were damaged with messages urging the reconstruction of the Babri Masjid ahead of the big Ram Mandir consecration ceremony slated for January 22 in Ayodhya.
The message "Rebuild Babri Masjid 6 December" was sprayed on the first floor of the School of Language 2 building, along with the name "NSUI" (National Students' Union of India).
On social media on Thursday, images of the graffiti went viral. A dispute has been raised by the text on the campus wall that is purportedly credited to NSUI. The message was not written by group members, according to the student body, who have denied any involvement.
The students' union has aggressively denounced such attitudes, claiming that this message is part of a larger plot to discredit both the college and NSUI.
NSUI has also demanded that the varsity administration investigate the situation thoroughly.
