Union Minister of State (Independent Representative) for Law and Justice Arjun Ram Meghwal is scheduled to visit the National Law School of India (NLSIU) in Bengaluru on Wednesday.

While the visit comes amid a controversy over the proposed screening of a documentary on activist Umar Khalid at the university, neither NLSIU students nor Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) members have confirmed whether the minister’s visit is related to the controversy.

According to students and ABVP members, the event was already planned at the university and the invitation was extended to Mr. Meghwal before the controversy surrounding the screening of the documentary emerged.
