The tremendous fee hike will ensure that JNU will become an elitist university eligible only for a few rich students while denying cheap education to a vast majority. The current fee hike is a body blow to the poor students pursuing almost free education in the prestigious and historical institution.

AYODHYA VERDICT HAS KEPT OPEN MANY ISSUES OF ETHICS

CONCERNS ON EQUALITY, JUSTICE AND SECULARISM REMAIN
D. Raja - 2019-11-14 15:40
The Supreme Court verdict on the Ram Mandir-Babri Masjid dispute in Ayodhya has left many concerns and questions for the people of our country. First of all, as was appealed by almost every political party including BJP, this verdict by a five-judge bench of Supreme Court of India should not be taken as a victory for any group over another. This sounds good but the truth is entirely different. Many senior BJP leaders who are in government and also leaders of RSS-affiliated organisations have made statements which resonate like trumpet of victory. On the other hand, the people who are committed to secularism and justice have started expressing their agony and anxiety over the possible implications of this judgment. Renowned historians, academicians and judicial luminaries have commented openly and pointed out how the ‘faith’ has been kept over evidences and historical facts.
