Pakistan aimed to convey a message to the West about its counterterrorism efforts and show China that it has control over the CPEC routes. However, both messages fell flat.
Tajikistan did not want to extend the lease because of apparent pressure from Russia & China over non-regional military personnel at the air base, it is learnt.
On 21 Oct, a buzz went up that the govt had released full list of gallantry award recipients along with Op Sindoor citations. I put an AI caddy on the job. It took me into a never-ending rabbit hole.
This Institute of Eminence thing is seen as a bit of a joke, when you consider that –
“The .. IoE tag .. status was awarded to Reliance Foundation’s Jio Institute, which is yet to be built.”
If the relevant government department/ministry merely notified all universities, public and private, as well as the public at large of the criteria for gaining this status, there would be no problems. But then .. how to explain granting the status to an entity that does not exist?
On the other hand, judging by the examples given in the article, the criteria for withholding such recognition is perfectly clear & simple – don’t criticise Modi, BJP, and RSS.
This is without doubt very wrong, from any point of view!
But, it does raise the question, Where is the need for an educational institution to criticise a person or a party on political grounds? Political, economic, and social actions of any government may, and should, be taken up for objective discussion by the students! Which will usually show that there is much to be said on both sides! There will never be unanimous agreement for either view. But such an objective understanding of national issues is in fact precisely what higher education is all about.
Being pro or anti a person or a party is not any part of the ‘job description’ of the fuculty or of an institution of higher learning! There are other fora for that.
Foolish article written by so called self proclaimed intellectual. The critic does not mean to always criticise without rhyme or reason without any source information.
What is mentioned as IB report, then submitting such biased report to ministry is not correct. As a democratic country every citizen, organisation have right to criticise the govt, political leaders, ministries and its way of functioning… Governments and it’s handpicked officers should never think of changing the meaning of democracy. Else in future these British brand services may find better managed services entering in their place.
The so called Modi haters were not born in a day. Every intelligent and educated person has seen how this government has misused constitutional institutions in an undemocratic way to build a Nazi-like situation in the country. The intelligent want to stop this and the fooling are mislead to feel proud with hightened nationalist feelings by creating this paranoia of propaganda by some ‘foreign power’.
The country is going to the dogs as the intelligent are suppressed. Every critic is labeled as propaganda. I know that because I am not funded by anyone but feel the same. Why can’t media organisations feel the same?
So, what are you? India-intelligent or Modi-foolish?
Where is the proof? ThePrint must share the document they are referring to, else it’s all propaganda and fake news. And if they’ve accessed some confidential document of IB, then they should be tried under law.
Propaganda and buses views expressed here.Source information etc is one way to get away from legal actions.It is quite known that wire or print and so many others who are openly known for Modi haters are in guild for spreading lies Why they hate Modi is not clearly known that is it due to funding they get make them do??
Funding is mentioned in this article.
Lol sure, ‘Berkeley riots’. I assure you, I was a first year there at the time (and continued to be an honours graduate in a PhD programme at a Chicago), the worlds best ranking public institution is not ‘going to the dogs’ at any rate.
Sir, you cannot be right in ‘new India’ of trolls, as they and their ‘master’ know everything that has to be known anytime in human life. We are ruled by someone who claims to have a degree in ‘entire political science’. What else can we expect from the trolls. In many cases, these are paid trolls and will right what someone tells them to write and that someone may be semi-literate or simply another paid ‘feku’. We wish you the best for your studies. I have had teachers who have studied at Berkley and will go with what your experience suggests. We have no choice to live with the trolls, as long as Modi-like people rule the country. Hopefully, it will get better at some stage.
Being critical is absolutely crucial to an open democratic society.
Going after critics, making lists of them, potentially punishing them, is what fascists and weak, anxious “leaders” do.
Good luck India, you’ll need it
This entire article is based on a ‘note’ accessed by ThePrint. Where is that note? You should have attached image of that note, otherwise all this is just gossip. Also, usually media houses do not take each other’s name, in any kind of news. But you’re openly taking names like TheWire. Need sympathy votes or wanting more readers for that platform, which is basically a part of your ecosystem.
A republic can’t function without an opposition. The very point of existence of these is to be part of the progress and produce products with plural views, observing and being critique along with support in those situations where better could be done. That’s characteristics of institutions of education.
The government should be ashamed of their actions, otherwise it will be described as authoritarian and such actions will tag India of croney capitalism.
Co-incidentally our country men are totally rallying to be “yes man” in fact already putting off their rights so the opposition or enemy does not get a hold in power. It will be too dark before dawn and we ain’t even hit the midnight I am afraid.
Exactly! What is the proof & authenticity of this news? Where is that NOTE on which this entire article is based? Because this is big thing. If true, might account to misuse of IB. But if false, then this website must be treated by law at top levels.
We know what public interest The print, wire.in etc serves. For what agenda u people are propagating all of us r aware. Thats a right decision otherwise another JNU will emerge.
You “know”… for “what agenda” – and yet you failed to spell it out. Why not take a few extra minutes to educate us?
Universities Grants Commission was supposed to be an independent body. University administration should also be done by an independent body. Slowly but steadily every one of the Universities have either voluntarily or forcibly made to tow their line.
All over the world, universities are nurseries of critical thinking. The young, especially, are meant to be a little seditious. There are a hundred objective criteria by which these institutions can be judged for excellence. Supporting / being critical of the government of the day is not one of them.

Universities across the world are going to the dogs. Berkely riots was a clear case, jnu also shows some stupid mentality.
Huge difference between critical thinking and rioting.
All over the world, universities are nurseries of critical thinking. The young, especially, are meant to be a little seditious. There are a hundred objective criteria by which these institutions can be judged for excellence. Supporting / being critical of the government of the day is not one of them.
It is Indian Institute for Human Settlements and not “Settlement”. Please correct it.
