The Film and Television Institute of India [FTII] administration has sought police “protection” for the campus following an incident in which a symbolic protest installation put up by the agitating students was vandalised outside the main gate.
Prashant Pathrabe, the newly appointed director of Film and Television Institute of India that is hit by a strike by students demanding removal of TV actor Gajendra Chauhan as chairman, today said a symbolic formation of a big “question mark” installed by the students in front of the gate was found vandalised on Sunday night.

Meanwhile, right wing group Patit-Pawan Sanghatana (PPS) yesterday staged a demonstration in front of the FTII main gate, raising slogans supporting Chauhan and calling the agitating students “Naxalites”.
However, several Bollywood celebrities have backed the students’s demand to the government for revoking the appointment of Chauhan.
