Veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah has criticised the union government over the ongoing protests at Jamia Millia Islamia, describing himself as a “dimagi naxal” in a video shared on Facebook. He accused the government of undermining educational institutions, weakening democracy and trying to break the spirit of young people. Referring to protests at Jawaharlal Nehru University, the Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute and Jamia, Shah said the treatment of students would not be forgotten. He also criticised the BJP IT Cell and rejected labels such as “anti-national” and “tukde-tukde gang” used against government critics. The remarks come amid student protests demanding the restoration of Jamia’s students’ union.
