Nayi Dhara reigned in the era of Harivansh Rai Bachchan and Nirala. It’s now creating a new niche for Hindi literature online, as well as through writers’ residencies and events.
Maitreyi chooses the knowledge that leads to immortality over her husband’s offer of money. Her philosophical ambition reveals the roots of women-led institutions in Buddhism and Jainism.
Over generations, Bihar’s bane has been its utter lack of urbanisation. But now, even Bihar is urbanising. Or let’s say, rurbanising. Two decades under Nitish Kumar have created a new elite in its cities.
Indian govt officials last month skipped Turkish National Day celebrations in Delhi, in a message to Ankara following its support for Islamabad, particularly during Operation Sindoor.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
It is the curse upon Hindus that they will abuse their own motherland, culture, religion and traditions and think that it is being “progressive”.
One unnoticed sample is distortion of the name Ashok as Ashoka. Was the king called अशोक or अशोका? Does any single book of ancient history, even of the fanatical communist variety, write his name as Ashoka ? Over centuries, lakhs and crores of families have named their sons after the name of the illustrious emperor, but was or is any single of them called Ashoka? No , every one named so is अशोक not अशोका. How can they do it? The very pronunciation अशोका sounds ugly and foolish.And this egregious distortion in the very name of the university itself !!! It says a lot.
Pramatha Raj Sinha has done the nation a great service by establishing the Indian School of Business (ISB). The ISB will stand as his legacy in the years to come.
However, the immense goodwill and respect he has enjoyed as the founder of ISB is depleting fast. Why? Because of his patronage of all kinds of anti-India and anti-Hindu elements at Ashoka University. Professors like Aparna Viadik openly teach anti-Hindu hatred filled courses and indoctrinate young minds to hate their own culture, religion and heritage. Foreigners like Christophe Jaffrelot who have made a career out of spewing bile against Hindus and denigrating Hinduism are provided safe shelter. The recent unsavoury episode of Ali Khan Mahmudabad did not exactly bring glory to the university.
Most of the faculty are extreme Left wing and openly pursue an anti-Hindu and anti-India agenda in their teaching and research activities. Some like Mahmudabad are Islamists.
Mr. Sinha must take care not to ruin his reputation by providing shelter to such people at his university.
