Dont let fundamentalists drive university syllabi !

This set of political buttons / badges [see images below] were made by me in collaboration with Mukul Mangalik on the occasion of the First A K Ramanujan lecture and seminar that was held at the Ramjas college in Delhi University on 21 March 2012.

Please wear these buttons reproduce them if you wish to make a political statement and to protest those who use the argument of ’hurt religious sentiments’ to block and undermine public writing and freedom of expression. Today they succeeded in attacking an essay by AK Ramanujan and get the university to suppress it from the syllabi, tomorrow they will target someone else’s work.
