Dear all, We urge all who are concerned with the sanctity of an individual's human rights, who mourn the tragic death of Dr Srinivas Ramchandra Siras, who want to see the beloved Aligarh Muslim University delivered from the hands of the criminals currently running this institution, who support the rights of queer people, to come for the protest meeting planned on Monday evening at Central Park, Connaught Place, New Delhi. Please do forward this information widely. JUSTICE FOR Dr SIRAS We condemn the events leading to the persecution and eventual death of Dr. Srinivas Ramachandra Siras, Reader and Chair of Modern Indian Languages at Aligarh Muslim University (AMU). His death is the result of the harassment he faced, including the unlawful and unethical suspension he faced on account of his being gay. Dr Siras had to undergo trauma, fear, harassment and humiliation in and by his own University and all actors involved must be held culpable in his death. What: Protest Where: Central Park, Connaught Place, in front of Metro Station Gate When: 5:30pm, Monday, April 12th
