ABVP Files FIR against AU student over ‘Anti-National’ post

Silchar: The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) at Assam University has filed an FIR against Md Bahauddin Choudhury, a computer science student, accusing him of posting anti-national and inflammatory content on social media following the recent Pahalgam terror attack. ABVP alleges that Choudhury’s April 23 post used derogatory language towards individuals commenting on the attack and spread misinformation that could incite communal tension. The student organization has called for strict action under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, citing concerns over national security and public harmony. In response to mounting criticism, Choudhury issued a public apology on Facebook, acknowledging his use of “aggressive and offensive” language, though claiming he did not intend to hurt sentiments. The university administration has launched an internal investigation as ABVP continues to demand legal accountability.
