Kanpur, Jan 1: In a seemingly bizarre development, the IIT in Kanpur has set up a panel to decide whether the poem "Hum dekhenge lazim hai ki hum bhi dekhenge", penned by Faiz Ahmad Faiz, is anti-Hindu.
The panel has been set up in response to complaints filed by a faculty member who claimed that the students, during a protest, sang this poem which was anti-Hindu.
The poem reads thus -- "Lazim hai ke hum bhi dekhenge. Jab arz-e-Khuda ke kaabe se. Sab bhut uthwaye jayenge, Hum ahl-e-safa mardood-e-harm. Masnad pe bithaye jayenge. Sab taaj uchale jaenge. Sab takht giraye jayenge. Bas naam rahega Allah ka. Hum dekhenge."
It was the last line that has turned into a bone of contention. Translated into English, it means, 'When thrones will vanish, only Allah's name will remain' -- implying the misleading translation by the professor.
The poem had been written by Faiz in reference to military dictator Zia-ul-Haq in 1979 and was against the military rule in Pakistan. Faiz had left leanings and was an atheist. He was known for his revolutionary writings that kept him in jail for several years.
It may be recalled that the IIT-Kanpur students had taken out a peaceful march on the campus on December 17 in support of the students of Jamia Millia Islamia and during the march, the students sang the Faiz poem.
According to IIT Deputy director Manindra Agarwal: "In the video, the students are seen reciting the Faiz poem which can also be perceived as being anti-Hindu.
The IIT faculty member, in his complaint, has alleged that the students made anti-India and communal statements during their demonstration in solidarity with the Jamia students.
The complaint was based on two lines of the poem, which have obviously been misinterpreted -- "When all idols will be removed, only Allah's name will remain."
The faculty member has stated that "organisers and masterminds must be identified and expelled immediately."
Fifteen other students have also signed the complaint filed by the professor against the protesting students.
Meanwhile, IIT students have said that the faculty member who lodged the complaint has been banned on a social networking site for posting communal content.
In an article published on the IIT-Kanpur student media portal, the students clarified what exactly happened on the day of protest and how their chant was given a 'communal and misleading' turn. They stated that they had recited a few lines of the Faiz poem in reference to the police crackdown on the Jamia students.

Naren Anna,
When did you change your location from Thai Naadu to Singapore?
See below what perfect manuals have to say on the topic:-
In Hinduisum:-
Homosexuality is regarded as one of the possible expressions of human desire, Although some Hindu dharmic texts contain injunctions against homosexuality, a number of Hindu mythic stories have portrayed homosexual experience as natural and joyful, There are several Hindu temples which have carvings that depict both men and women engaging in homosexual sex
in Islam:-
In more than one place in Holy Quran, Allah recounts to us the story of Lut's people, and how he destroyed them for their wicked practice of homosexuality, there is consensus among Muslims and the followers of all other religions that sodomy is an enormity, It's even uglier that adultery,
Now, judge yourself, This madrasa teacher influenced by whom????
Naren Kotian, He must be inspired by your God men Swami Nithyananda, Ashram Bapu, Sant Rampal, Baba Ramdev, Swami Agnivesh, Chanraswami, Swami Raghaveshwara Bharati!!
