Calicut (Kerala) – The Calicut University has included Arundhathi Roy’s ‘Come September’, an anti-national article in “Appreciating Prose”, the book compiled and edited by C.R. Murugan Babu and Prof. Abida Farooqi, in the syllabus for the Semester III of the students of BA (English Literature). The article is the modified print version of Roy’s speech in 2002 in the US.

They say that in 2008, she supported the cause of Kashmiri independence and saluted the unarmed struggle of the Kashmiris against the armed Indian military.
  2.  BJP, ABVP and several nationalistic movements have protested against the anti-national stand of the university. A. Vinod Master, state president of Save Education Movement (SEM) and member of the National Monitoring Committee for Education said that the issue is serious and his organisation would intervene immediately. His organisation has already filed a complaint before the Union HRD Minister.
  3. BJP president K. Surendran has demanded legal action, for anti-national activities, against those who are responsible for this anti-national syllabus.
