Controversy[edit]
- On prompting the screening of Anand Patwardhan's controversial documentary 'Raam ke Naam' by the Department of Film Studies in Jadavpur University, which is based on the demolition of Babri Masjid in Ayodhya, many students protested against the act. Ghosh, on the documentary being banned from screening in otherwise Hyderabad University and Presidency University made his stance that there shouldn't be any encroachment on people's freedom of speech and expression, which is for all.[22][23][24][1]
