The principal of a government polytechnic in Kerala and four students were
among seven people booked by police on Tuesday over putting a photograph of
Prime Minister Narendra Modi in their campus magazine under a list of
"negative faces" that also included Adolf Hitler and Osama bin Laden.

Cases had been registered against four students, associated with the
magazine, its Principal M N Krishnan Kutty, staff Editor Gopi and the owner
of a printing press for offences under Indian Penal Code (IPC) including
concealing design to commit offence, wantonly giving provocation,
punishment for defamation and printing matter known to be defamatory. The
polytechnic is located in Kuzhoor.

The campus magazine for 2013-14 was released on June 4 and one of its pages
titled 'negative faces' featured a photograph of Modi. Others figuring in
the collage include, sandalwood smuggler Veerappan, LTTE supremo V
Prabhakaran, Adolf Hitler, Al-Qaeda chief Laden and George W Bush, police
said. They said the case was booked on a complaint by a social worker
Subash.

The magazine was brought out by a team of campus editors of the
institution, whose student union is stated to be controlled by a pro-Left
campus outfit. The polytechnic authorities hinted that the magazine would
be withdrawn as it has sparked a controversy. Local BJP workers staged a
protest and burnt copies of the controversial magazine.
