It would be a disservice to the women of Hassan to look at Prajwal Revanna’s alleged abuse of power as a ‘sex scandal’. Allegations against him show what ‘absolute power corrupts absolutely’ actually means.
Air India’s new policy, effective from 2 May, introduces new weight limits for tickets in each of the different 'fare families' — Comfort, Comfort Plus, and Flex.

A theme has not yet emerged for BJP & people see lack of a contest, which makes it unexciting. For all these reasons, 2024 is turning out to be an unexpectedly theme-less election.
This article appears to be a cut out from the may on similar lines which are there to ridicule Modi. I am not sure this helps the debate and progress of our young minds. As a younger generation, it is equally important that we emphasise not only fundamental rights but also the responsibilities that go with it as no right is absolute. That will help give a balanced view. We need to emerge as responsible citizens. Simply ridiculing the govt in not going to help- Farmers have been engaged for 11 rounds, can’t forget the violence on 26th Jan as a symbol of dissent, Can’t have Khalistanis support the movement. Dissent is essential and should continue but not with a intent just to ridicule or corner the govt of the day because we don’t like it. Nothing was rosy before this govt took office. Many people who didn’t have a voice are getting one today
In Prof. Paranjape’s lecture on Nationalism in JNU campus, he insisted that there needs to be clarity and for the sake of clarity there must be some sort of democratic referendum on the College Campus, regarding the separatism in Kashmir, to point out what percent of JNU students support a “Separate” Kashmir. There was a sea of hands and cheers and jeers by students in support of said separatism following the comment of another guy who said “There are a lot more who do support separated kashmir”.
All the billions of times you invoke “Godi” Media, as someone portraying the “students” as “separatists”, it won’t bear any fruit in the face of countless evidences of documented calls for separatism of kashmir. So that was one of the important points in your debate which was a fallacy.
“Why are we being trained to cherish a single line of thought?”- your one sided article shows the single line of thought your mind is occupied with. But sometimes it is important to scrutinize the free speech(dissent as you call it), otherwise our youth will be used as pawns by foreign actors working against our national interest. example is disha ravi’s case!!
knowing fundamental duties along with your fundamental rights is also important.
try looking things from the other perspective as well…
Ok.
But student activism in India means closing down classes, disrupting work in university offices, blocking roads and traffic and shouting a lot that you don’t agree with the govt or that you agree with it depending on your party affiliation.
But when asked to give a coherent blueprint about what changes you want to see, why and how the response is ‘fascist ‘. Hope when you become involved in student activism you will have an actual plan and not just skipping classes.
