Resting on past laurels is not what a achiever institution rests on. Indira ji Gandhi died in 1984, Nirmala ji Seetharaman is 60 years old .


JNU culture has not changed a bit from 1975 to today. If you give current students 10-20 years they would emerge as influential as Nirmala Sitaraman or Abhijit Banerjee. The field that they belogn to takes time to make it big. For the same reason, I have mentioned that even Abhijit Banerjee went to jail for protesting against fee hike many years back. Even that time few people might have said JNU must be destroyed as students always keep protesting but today we have a Nobel laureate from the same university. Abhay Kumar, Ranjit Nayak are few young ones. But Nirmala also became a finance minister at the age of 60. JNU every year gives so many IAS, IFS, IPS, and economists, historians to India. If you nurture them today you will even see students from the last 10-15 years making big.


This government for the first time is trying to change the culture of the university and started attaching students there.

Even if they haven’t achieved anything. Even if they are sitting at home doing nothing. What is your point? Shut down a university because we have so many alternatives where we can send our kids to. Do you know the cut off for class 12 is 100 percent in du. Why? Coz we don’t have enough educational institutions. And here people are saying close down a university. A university. Not a college. Shut down a university coz it Has no real achievements? And these are the same people for whom real achievements would be toeing a certain line and keeping their mouth shut. Tell the government to open a university with 10% of the history, values and culture as JNU before it asks its minions to suggest closing it. Maybe that university will survive unlike the substitute trees of aarey which died in 5 days.

Which ones participated in the 'protests' ?

These protests are actually creating obstacles in the way of creating more Kumar's and Nayaks.

Yes! We are all nationalists. We all want the best for our country. This whole narrative of tukade tukade stems from the idea that modi is India and if you are anti modi you are anti india. No. Modi is not India. We are India.
