However, the notice has not gone down well with the students , who termed it ''undemocratic'' and burned the notice during a protest at Administration Bloc on Friday.
Eight months after JNU students being charged with sedition, another controversy seems to be simmering at the Varsity campus with string of show cause notices being issued to its students following which students have announced a "massive" university strike on October 17 against the alleged "Notice Raj".
A day after JNU administration ordered an inquiry into the burning of effigies of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP chief Amit Shah by NSUI activists on the occasion of Dussehra in the Varsity campus, another show cause notice has been issued against two students, Mohit Pandey and Suresh Garimalu, for pasting posters on the walls of the administrative building.
"You are directed to appear before the proctor on 20th October to explain your position for pasting posters on the issue of hostel unavailability on the wall of Ad-bloc," the notice read.
However, the notice has not gone down well with the students , who termed it ''undemocratic'' and burned the notice during a protest at Administration Bloc on Friday.
"JNUSU strongly condemn this spate of show cause notices being served by the Administration to student activists and called for a massive University strike against this 'Notice raj' on October 17," Mohit said.
''JNU promotes culture of dissent and debate and the administration is trying to mute our voices by using such tactics," he said, adding no student will appear before the proctor for any such show cause notice in future.
While the Varsity still maintained that the show cause notice issued against NSUI activist as no permission was sought to organise the effigy burning programme the campus, NSUI said no permission is required to organised any such protest and they have been unnecessarily targeted.
"I have been singled out as I have always been vocal against the impostion of RSS ideology over students within the educational institutions,'' Sunny Dhiman, NSUI activist against whom the notice was being served.
Earlier, the Varsity had ordered a proctoral inquiry into burning of effigy of Gujarat government and 'gau-rakshak' (cow vigilantes) and issued show-cause notices to the students concerned which had triggered several students protests at the campus.
