“I do Vipassana. The mind constructs the flavour of the fruit. You can like or dislike any fruit you want. You can choose to like mango, you can choose to hate it…You can choose to like poor people, you can choose to hate them. You construct everything in your mind. The mind decides everything. I might start off hating someone, but after a bit of interaction, I’ll see things through their eyes, and be like: Actually, I like him; he’s great. But to answer your question: I like mangoes, I like bananas, I never used to like carrots, but now I do. I never used to like asparagus, but I do now…”

A: RaGa visited THE NLU.
The NLSIU SBA did reach out to Rahul a few times, but the dates did not work out. Rahul spends a large part of the year abroad, and when in India he is mostly confined to Delhi and busy with political work. It’s actually easier for NLUD to invite Rahul.
So the obvious question to ask is whether he has visited an NLU. If not, whether any of the student bodies have invited him? Makes complete sense to invite a future PM, especially one who is loved by students in your college. Also, if he is made aware of the challenges facing NLU students, he will certainly take them up in Parliament.
I feel NLUs are not in his radar right now. Perhaps he isn’t much aware of them, even though one NLU is named after his father (RGNUL).
