"We have called a meeting to discuss the next course of action against the TV channel for airing mala fide content. Every student of Jamia's Residential Coaching Academy who has cleared the UPSC exam should file an FIR against the channel for its hateful content," Najma Akhtar, Vice Chancellor, Jamia Millia Islamia, told IANS.

He referred to students of Jamia's Residential Coaching Academy as "Jihadis of Jamia" and promoted the hashtag ‘UPSCJihad'.His tweet has drawn flak from Twitter users with many demanding the suspension of his account and registration of an FIR.
