Vice Chancellor promotes Evangelism in Guindy Engineering College

I wish to bring to your notice the fact that on Monday, 22nd
December, 2008, the GuindyEngineeringCollege
premises was used for Christian preaching and evangelising purposes. In the
guise of Chrsitmas celebrations, the AnnaEngineeringCollege,
Guindy had officially invited Dr. Paul Dinakaran the known Christian evangelist
for their so-called Christmas celebrations. This programme was ironically
arranged in the Vivekananda Auditorium in the GuindyCollege
premises from 3 PM onwards. At the programme were present the College
Vice-Chancellor Mannar Jawahar, a Christian by faith. It is clear that the
college Vice Chancellor abused his official position in a high-standing
institution of higher learning to carry out Christian preaching and
evangelising activities. Students present at this programme were told
explicitly –

 

 “Theeys saktigalai
vazhipaduvorgal, antha theeya sakthigalai vittuvittu, yesuvai vazhipaduvadaharkku
viruppapaduvorgal, kannai moodikkondu, kai uyarthhungal. Naan ungalai yesuvidam
azhaithu selgiren.”

 

(Thjose of you who are worshipping evil forces, if you
wish to give up worshipping these evil forces and want to worship Jesus Christ,
please close your eyes and raise your hands. I will take you to Christ).

 

 This is nothing but sheer Christian
prosylytising by the Vice-Chancellor usuing his official position and
constitutes the grossest and the most obscene violation of the law. It is my
responsibility to bring this violation of the law which may constitute either a
crime or a law and order offence, to the notice of the Commissioner of Police.
I will also write a letter to the Chief Minister of Tamil nadu bringing his
attention to this abuse of government-aided educational institutions by
minority religions.
