BJP's national general secretary for Maharashtra, Goa and Tamil Nadu, CT Ravi, demanded on Monday that Delhi's premier institute, Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), be renamed as Swami Vivekananda University. Ravi, who is not new to making controversial remarks, tweeted, "It was Swami Vivekananda who stood for the idea of 'Bharat'. It is only right that Jawaharlal Nehru University be renamed Swami Vivekananda University. It is Swami Vivekananda who stood for the "Idea of Bharat". It is only right that Jawaharlal Nehru University be renamed as Swami Vivekananda University.
