Except for a vague post on Facebook — Kanhaiya Kumar has been quiet on his former JNU ally and Tihar Jail comrade Umar Khalid’s arrest in the Delhi riots case.
In 2019 Lok Sabha polls, Kanhaiya Kumar was a deal-breaker for CPI-RJD alliance. But now RJD is attempting to ‘prevent the split of secular votes’ with an alliance with CPI.
After Delhi govt gives its nod to prosecute him in 2016 sedition case, Kanhaiya says the law is being misused and he wants a speedy trial in fast-track court.
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 seems the dixit guy gets paid for writing such articles from the upper caste hindu liberals who have always been working against the left. Seems he has not read the telegraph interview, he himself refers. Dude the answers are in there. So Kanhaiya cannot stay away from social media for a while, and spend time for a party where he holds a national level position. And he actually have posted something on fb recently condemning the UAPA charges against Umar. And look at the title of this piece of trash .
If you want to beat up Modi. please do provided you can. Do not support a JNU monster Umar Khalid even if he were a Brahmin Hindu.
People who do not want to risk their skin against Modi are backing up a monster called Khalid.
The author mentions the telegram article but didn’t read it himself/herself Kanhaya has lost many friends, family memebers and teachers to covid he can’t vist his mother and has been traveling helping comrads and people in this pandamic, you only want to sell his words, vampire journalisum
It very difficult to comment against the author of this article or kanhaiya. I hope Kanhaiya will speak his views on Khalid’s arrest. The problem is media channels who can misuse support of kanhaiya to the so called criminal Khalid. The upper caste comment holds right in today’s scenarios. Had it been a hindu upper caste arrested, support would have poured from all corners of politics. This will surely gain votes in Bihar election and no one wants to lose this at any cost.
I don’t think anyone here has give a reasonable comments. All the comments are so communal. No one wants to say that Umar was arrested for speaking during CAA protect. Not for slogans. If you watch his videos ,there is nothing against the nation. The point here is to keep their ideology floating, they can drown anyone. There is alot of hatred against the Muslims. No doubt BJP is leading it.
I think the only solution for india is education with all the best human values. We should look at Germany how they de- radicalised their ppl arr WW2. I don’t understand what kind of Muslim they want. I don’t generalized all the Hindus ,there are many left with human values, I admire many of them…
So now kanhaiya becomes privileged upper caste Hindu because he didn’t behave in a way you wanted him to. I didn’t know and never cared about his caste. Thanks for enlightening me. Seems like you guys have labels readily available in your pocket for every human being on this planet.
I too wonder what Prashant Dixit is trying to portray.He is exposing leftists using Muslims card for harming India .He has maligned Kanaya by terming him an upper cast Hindu.Kanaya is a Hindu interested in teaching profession which makes him Brahmin.Leftists must be thumping their chests for finding Kanaya getting freed from clutches of Anti nationals .Hope Ummar Khalid also gets freed from Urban Nexal influnce & serves the nation as a nationalist
Why no background is given of the author of this article? Is he a student leader? Is he an anarchist? Is he a politician? I would be worried if he is a journalist. He is more busy giving lables than actual writing.
It’s all about politics baby. The ultimate goal of these so called student leaders is to get a ticket from a political party and get elected as MP or mla. In that sense Kumar was smarter than Khalid. That’s it! No need to cry and write a lengthy article.
People like you and other Journalists are the biggest culprit of spoiling the harmony. When you try to defend the people and ideologies which takes whole city , whole country at Ransom, by blockading crucial roads. They wanted to protest, they could have gone to some other place, why Crucial roads, because intent was to Put everyone else at Ransom, Do you forget the scenes of Policemen mobbed and beaten up in the starting days of this Farce congregations.
If it had been any other country they would have immediately used brute force.
What kind of people could chase and attack a cop ? what kind of people would point a gun on a cop ?
I know for myself that if I am ever confronted by a cop, I become conscious and I follow them with respect, even if I have to argue. Attacking a cop ? Never in my dreams.
Intent of these congregation was to create inconvenience to masses to lower the flash point, for a future trigger and it happened.
Kanhaiyya Kumar is aware , even you must be aware and conscious of this, but for the sake of being journalist you would do anything.
Perhaps you know that law doesn’t distinguish between Omar and Kanhaiah… None has the right to work against the country. Simple as that. This is the New India, new government, voted to power second tenure by absolute majority.
His silence sends a strong message to ignore him instead of giving him importance. He turned out to be another one from the same lot of politicians. What a waste of time giving him much attention.
Aww…is’nt it nice seeing so-called ‘liberals’ eating there own. Look they even already started giving him labels..part of” upper caste hindhus”, whatever that means. Still its a mystery to me then why oppose modi who is not upper-caste Hindu but from a backward caste. And also it seems the Muslims need some special care. But why do they need special attention? But people wanting to have special attention there is Pakistan for you. You should go there and get ur required attention. in this country, every one should be treated the same and also every community should shoulder the weight of secularism equally. Country first ur identity next should be the slogan. Which can be a little tough to swallow for the left who thrive on identity politics of victimhood.
This article is a brilliant example of how one can launch into an exhaustive, convoluted and bitter argument with oneself – and finally and with immense self-congratulation, lose the argument.
No hard feelings, Mr Dixit. I entirely agree with your view that India needs young ‘revolutionary’ political alternatives like Kumar and Khalid to the fossilized likes of Congress, BJP, CPI, CPM et al. But it is laughably immature and shallow to suggest that Kanhaiya Kumar should support Umar Khalid till doomsday come for reasons like: “…there was little that separated the two in terms of their revolutionary thoughts, their fearlessness, and their activism. Except for one thing — their identities. ” Actually, we are all human; we are all fearless, revolutionary, separated by our identities. And let us thank Allah, Krishna, Jesus, Marx and and other secular deities for that, Mr Dixit – for it is individual identity alone that makes us human, that separates us from the amoeba and the bacillus.
Jai Hind, Lal Salaam.
Unfortunately the author lost me at “cabal of Upper caste Hindu liberal” . The problem with such authors is once you do not agree to their view they will dig up the choicest of crass class and casteist slur. They are the greatest of illiberals and the grandest of hypocrites who stand by a non caste based society only to bare their fangs by bringing up caste and religion and creed of the lot who doesn’t agree with them. One thing they do not do is – Convince the other side by their arguments.
Maybe kanihya knows what the Muslim Umar really is. And possibly must have tried his best to dissuade his friend from becoming a terrorist like his religion suggests
you guys are so good at cancelling your own
no doubt this country does nt have an opposition
last week it was arundhati roy now its kanhiya kumar
hypocrisy was always an under current , welcome to politics
ever questioned why prashant bhushan took 8 yrs to call the anna team as BJP stooge did he not know being part of that troupe what it was about
what has been done to have a more representative CPI , most of the top brass is from historically dominant community and still dosent have a base , I mean how bad are you guys at communicating . CPI still has a weakness in china , WHY?? for god sake china is not even communist and worst in human rights , also china dosent give two cents about indian leftist , SO STOP !
also stop making the assumption that there are only two kinds of people in this country
there are so many gaps with you neither mend nor address
do some groundwork, political work meets its succes in delhi but the process has to start from the rest of india
the fact that your despair lies in a political personality not saying anything rn should tell you that you havent gathered any base of your own
the whole country has not just overnight changed
there are dynamic principles in politics even for voters , but you guys cant weave an alternative narrative which brings people under one umbrella
instead like mr dixit here you are still calling people according to the categories you think are united politically
ever wondered why a dalit party BSP supported scrapping 370 or for that matter the fact ambedrakite dosent have to always mean communist , for sure on the ballot
If Kanhaiya Kumar does not respond to Jihadi-communist Umar Khalid’s arrest, what is this writer’s beer? It is not politics, Indian Jails, STUPID! Kanhaiya kumar has been softened after he spent some time in Indian Jail. Now , Jihad Khalid will also be softened.
If the views are personal, please mention it in the top, then we can understand is there any basis to it.

dalit zarror chipkayenge muslim ke sath. Topic kuchh bhi ho agenda chalta rahna chahiye.

Useless article
And that’s what politics is all about. Shouting out on the roads is not politics. These people don’t even matter.
Perhaps you know that law doesn’t distinguish between Omar and Kanhaiah… None has the right to work against the country. Simple as that. This is the New India, new government, voted to power second tenure by absolute majority.

Keep Barking.

Regurgitated garbage by someone who possibly owes this position for being a Brahmin..
