Arrest and bail in social media case
Dr. Shaija was arrested and later released on bail in February last year following complaints from organisations, including the Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI), Students' Federation of India (SFI), and the Youth Congress. The complaints were based on her social media post, where she allegedly expressed «pride» in Godse for assassinating Mahatma Gandhi and thus «saving India.» The post was in response to a message shared by a right-wing advocate.
Opposition from political parties
Several political parties have opposed Dr. Shaija’s appointment. DYFI, the youth wing of the Communist Party of India (Marxist), has announced a protest march to the institute.
Institute’s transition plan
As per the Director’s order, Dr. Shaija will work alongside the current Dean, Dr. Priya Chandran, until March 7 to ensure a «smooth changeover.» The appointment is initially for two years or until further orders.
