No way can Jindal students be communists. It’s just rich kids cosplaying to be hip and woke. If they are communists let them give up their privilege and attend DU instead.
Haha, you think jindal students are communists? theyre just perfomative teenages who want to rebel against mum and dad. No one is giving their inheritance away.
But also- if you say some people dont have a right to free speech because of historical actions of authoritative regimes- youre quite authoritarian too and you dont really understand the value of free speech.
I don’t support the security people taking say their stuff. I also condemn the Jindal administration’s repeated efforts at censorship, under VC Rajkumar. But please look at the website of Nazariya. It’s a hardcore Communist magazine and the website itself openly declares them to be Marxist. Sorry, but it’s hard for me to sympathise with such people.
You must have received extraordinary education to consider lumping people all across the world together just because they y identify as communists. Going by that logic, you may be identified as a fascist similar to the Nazis and hence should be tried for war crimes right away.
Sorry, but Communists can’t demand free speech when they themselves are the biggest oppressors of free expression: China, North Korea, Cuba, former USSR, East Germany etc.
And this whole thing is a stunt. Everyone reads on the internet these days, no one reads hard copies of magazines. Your magazine is also available online. So why do you have to create a ruckus?
Ah, good to know that jindal students can protest over stuff like this while their NLU counterparts have to languish for basic infrastructure and permanent faculty - the divide is real.
Naveen Jindal was a Cong MP and C Rajkumar was very pro-Congress, but I am seeing a shift now, as Modi will probably be winning a third term. It wouldn’t surprise me if Naveen Jindal joins BJP.
We must rely on a neutral news site before commenting. The website Counter Currents is know to be extreme left. They actually accuse Taiwan of aggression against China LMAO.
I personally believe there are two sides of the story. Certain Jindal students have a reputation for being very entitled, arrogant and disrespectful to their teachers, who they look down upon for not being as rich as them. I think we should hear the Chief Proctor’s version too.
Lastly, it is hypocritical for ultra-rich Jindal students to take up the cause of workers rights. If they are genuinely committed, they should leave Jindal and join a government college. Stop cosplaying as Marxists.
Moderator, please pin this important story. I don't think students have ever gone on a hunger strike in a leading law school in India, barring HNLU some years ago.
The gist is that the Chief Proctor, Prof Sridhar Dabiru Patnaik, has suspended students for distributing a leftist magazine attacking Modi. It's obvious that this de facto ban has been carried out in the context of the 2024 elections. There is talk that elite law schools like NLUs and Jindal may become flashpoints in 2024. The is just a small preview of what's to come.
