Aligarh Muslim University, founded on the vision of Sir Syed Ahmad Khan, has always represented dialogue, justice, and academic mentorship. Today, detention issues across faculties including the Engineering College and the recent Law Faculty case raise serious concern.
Students are being detained on attendance grounds without timely warnings or periodic notice, risking the loss of an entire academic year and future opportunities.
At the same time, students observe a troubling contradiction:
administrative silence often prevails during conflicts or crimes between students, yet swift action is taken when students peacefully and legally raise concerns about decisions affecting their academic future.
AMU’s traditions demand fairness alongside discipline.
We demand:
•University-wide review of detention cases.
• Transparent attendance notification system.
•Equal administrative accountability.
• Constructive dialogue with students.
*Protecting students’ futures is protecting AMU’s legacy.* Resistance . AMU IYF
