In several posts going viral on X, accounts have alleged that the department has been trying to promote 'Islamisation' and 'minority practices' on the campus.
Faculty, students defend Urdu name and theme, say criticism 'unnecessary' and emphasise that ‘Noor’ has been the title of the annual Diwali event for the past many years.
Pinarayi Vijayan once called Vellappally Natesan, the general secretary of SNDP Yogam, Kerala’s Pravin Togadia. Now he is giving his hate speech a free pass.
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham says bill will be 'well-timed, as Ukraine is making concessions for peace and Putin is all talk, continuing to kill the innocent'.
Islamabad-based think-tank PICSS's new report says Pakistan saw 'pronounced escalation' in violence last year, with 3,413 conflict-related deaths compared to 1,950 in previous year.
Many of you might think I got something so wrong in National Interest pieces written this year. I might disagree! But some deserve a Mea Culpa. I’d deal with the most recent this week.
Well Well
After studying from two iits and working in a third iit …iitgn for past 4 years… i can tell you IITGN faculty is mafia. theu would do whatever they would want to do.
there’s religious bias, region bias, and hierarchical discrimination at the top positions. Prof like Abinaya Sampath epuld throw out people on the basis of religious bias (hindu phobic)
No wonder Ms. Zenaira Bakhsh is defending the humanities idiots of IIT Gandhinagar. These fools have brought dishonour to the IIT brand and must be punished. The professors, especially Nishant Choksi and company, must be fired for engaging in such unethical conduct.
Ms. Bakhsh, being a Kashmiri, thinks it is her duty to support all kinds of “Islamic” causes in India.
First of all, what exactly is a humanities department doing in an IIT?
Do we want our IITs and IIMs to become JNUs or JU (Jadavpur University)?
If not, then we must keep them away from the scourge of humanities and social sciences. Wherever social sciences and humanities academics go, they create a ruckus.
For example, at Jadavpur University, it’s always the arts faculty students who are involved in all sorts of stupid things including painting “Azad Kashmir” slogans on the walls. The science faculty students are too engaged and burdened by coursework and research to be a part of this tomfoolery.
There is nothing in this article except for voicing official IITGN inputs. In absence of proof to the contrary, I find merit in allegations being put forward on SM. It is shameful that taxpayer money is being spent on rubbish.
