Denmark university sociology closure cited amid IIT Bombay protests
Image: India Today · original report

India Today has drawn a comparison between protests at IIT Bombay and the reported closure of a university sociology department in Denmark over Marxism. The supplied material offers no details about either the protests or the Danish institution, decision-making process, academic response or consequences.

India Today has cited a case involving a Danish university’s sociology department in coverage linked to protests at IIT Bombay. The supplied material describes the Danish case as the abolition of a university sociology department over Marxism. It does not identify the university, explain who made the decision, or set out the stated reasons for closing the department.

The excerpt also provides no details about the IIT Bombay protests, including their cause, participants or demands. It is therefore not possible from the available material to establish the precise comparison being made between the two cases.
