The shocking violence at JNU is a stinging indictment of its administration, Delhi Police and the intolerant political culture seeping into student politics. The attackers, whichever group they belong to, should swiftly be brought to justice. College campuses should be allowed to remain safe spaces for students of all ideologies.
Kejriwal’s hands-off conduct over JNU is hypocritical, shows him as a convenient politician
Arvind Kejriwal’s staying clear of violence-hit JNU and Jamia by blaming the Centre for Delhi Police smacks of hypocrisy. ‘Do we want such a helpless CM?’ he had asked when Sheila Dikshit cited lack of power over police. His posture now exposes him as just another practitioner of convenient politics.
