Two days after Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru University dramatically cut off power and electricity to the campus to prevent students from screening the controversial BBC series on PM Narendra Modi, students from two other top universities in the national capital -- Delhi University and Ambedkar University -- faced similar treatment from university administration and the police. Large gatherings were banned outside DU's Arts Faculty, where a screening was planned, and authorities disconnected the power supply in Ambedkar University to stop another planned screening. A group of students raised slogans and protested at both universities, and several of them were detained by the police. Meanwhile, in Kolkata, protests were staged by SFI students. The screening was held done in Madras University.
