In its 51 years, JNU has only seen Left dominance, but ABVP is now making its presence felt, though not much electorally, in India’s premier university.
ABVP and Left members had allegedly clashed on 3 and 4 January over student registrations for the winter semester and switching off power supply and a server.
JNU Teachers' Association said the university administration was complicit. They demanded a judicial inquiry into the attack and the resignation of Vice-Chancellor M. Jagadesh Kumar.
For an industry globally classified as hazardous, protections such as health insurance and a provident fund for workers are necessities. In Sivakasi, they remain elusive.
The industry forecasts exports are set to grow 16% in 2025-26, boosted by surplus domestic production and a drive to push into 26 underserved global markets with strong potential.
Indigenisation level will progressively increase up to 60 percent with key sub-assemblies, electronics and mechanical parts being manufactured locally.
It is a brilliant, reasonably priced, and mostly homemade aircraft with a stellar safety record; only two crashes in 24 years since its first flight. But its crash is a moment of introspection.
@Surendra whatever and @P Rawat Do you know that JNU for many years, year after year, right down to academic year 2019 has been named as one of the 3 best universities in India. It’s rank never went below third. If these students are not interested in their studies how the university is ranked at the top, on what basis? And let me add, these rankings are done by the ministry of HRD of GOI. Don’t go by the smear campaign against JNU in facebook, twitter and WhatsApp. Educate yourself. Think on your own feet. Be ‘Atmanirvar’ as 56″ will say it.
Fine column by Shri N Sai Balaji, a PhD student, who was President of JNU Students’ Union in 2018-19, in Deccan Herald. 2. Ends with the paragraph : Students have come to be the opposition the nation seems to have lost, and a resilient one at that. They are proving that education can be used to fight every oppression, every division. Being a student means learning to be human in the true sense. JNU teaches one to be a student, a lifelong one.
By all accounts of the looney left media, Jagdesh Kumar
appears to be doing a good job of cleaning up the JNU toxic cesspool. The left is rattled, more power to him!
Jagdeesh Kumar is a goon masquerading as a VC in JNU. I know that making a derogatory remark on someone’s physical appearance is in bad taste; but can’t help to observe that Jagdeesh Kumar even looks more like a goon than an academician.
When someone masks her face, picks up a rod, keeps a bottle of acid in reserve, confident the police will remain mute / disabled till she has accomplished her mission, the organisation she represents is acknowledging that it has lost the argument and the election. Mr Mahapatra seems to live on another planet. It is entirely possible the masked intruders will never be apprehended. However, this black mission will end up causing immense harm to its authors.
It is time we seriously think of closing down humanities area (not science and technology areas) of all Centrally funded Universities and instead spend crores of saved funds for bettering primary and secondary education. It is clear that these students are not serious about studies but are more focused on extra curricular activities for which Central government need not waste its scarce resources. It does not matter whether JNU is left or ABVP dominated; the main issue is that university is a place for serious learning and informed debate and not for hooliganism and politicking. Like BSNL and MTNL, government should announce VRS schemes for these professors and administrative staff and be free of the headaches of managing such institutions, which bring it a bad name finally. Political parties should start universities for preparing its cadres with courses in professional political career, just as we have professional courses in media and journalism.

Can’t agree more, my tax money should be spent on students who wants to study and do something good for the nation.
