BJP General Secretary CT Ravi has demanded that JNU be named after Swami Vivekananda.

Last week, Prime Minister Narendra Modi unveiled the statue of Swami Vivekananda on the campus of Jawaharlal Nehru University.

Ravi today said: “It is Swami Vivekananda who stood for the “Idea of Bharat”. His philosophy & values signify the “Strength of Bharat”.

“It is only right that Jawaharlal Nehru University be renamed as Swami Vivekananda University.

“Life of Bharat’s patriotic Saint will inspire generations to come”.
