Members of a right-wing organisation stormed into the National Film Archive of India (NFAI) in Pune to protest the screening of a docudrama that they believed portrayed the Indian Army negatively. The event happened during a showing of 'I Am Not The River Jhelum' as part of a film festival hosted by the Pune International Centre and the International Federation of Film Critics-India Chapter, reported PTI. 

The news agency's report further stated that the demonstrators, identified as members of the Samast Hindu Bandhav Sanghatana, disrupted the screening by shouting slogans and demanding an immediate halt. They were subsequently held and freed after receiving notices under the Maharashtra Police Act of 1951.
