January 19, 2016

Gujarat The invitation to Indresh Kumar by the Hemchandracharya North Gujarat University has created a difference of opinion on and outside the campus, with many educationists in the state questioning the move.

The university said the decision to invite Kumar has been taken by vice-chancellor RL Godra himself. The invite calls the RSS leader "a social reformer and defence expert".

Kumar is one of the accused named in a CBI chargesheet on the blast at an Ajmer shrine in 2007, which killed three people and injured more than a dozen.

The RSS is the ideological mentor of the BJP.
