Renaming of Dyal Singh College put on hold

HRD Minister, Prakash Javadekar clarified the situation and said that the decision to change the name of the evening college was not of government's and as of now, the decision has been put on hold. Raising the issue on Zero Hour, SAD member Naresh Gujral, in Lok Sabha said "the "unfortunately" managing committee of the Dyal Singh College recently decided to rename the evening college of the institution as Vande Mataram Mahavidyalaya."He said "he admitted that the words Vande Mataram evoked patriotic fervor in every Indian and the government should set up Vande Mataram universities all over the country." "But to change the name of a minority institution is a direct assault on the feelings of Sikhs...I feel this is something to be condemned," the SAD leader said. "Is not a government's decision and the government does not like it. That's why we have asked that the decision be withheld forthwith and an immediate meeting be convened ... we don't like it and such a thing will not happen," the minister said."Creating unnecessary controversies by playing with emotions is wrong," he added.Naresh Gujral said " philanthropist Dyal Singh Majithia had given his entire savings and life to the cause of education and set up several colleges and schools. There is a Dyal Singh College in Lahore also".
