We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.

Nevertheless, even if there is no regime change, one improvement that needs to happen is the induction of Menaka Guruswamy in the EC, replacing some of the mediocre lawyers and TMC acolytes.
In fact, if you think about it, the SC’s order asking judges to oversee SIR may take longer, because judges may be more careful in going through documents and not randomly allow everyone.
Absolutely all bets are off if President’s rule is imposed in the state. Interesting times for NUJS…

Just look at Gujarat. True there is anti incumbency. But look at the opposition.
Remember the famous SOB quote of FDR?
It is equally well documented that RSS members are free even encouraged to join any political party they desire including GOP and Reds. It was designed to do this. Vajpayee was brought down by RSS. Advani too got shorted later by RSS when he tried to do a Vajpayee after visiting Jinnah grave.
Strongly recommend that you actually read serious literature on RSS, including the critical (not polemical) works but also interact with different levels and outfits of the saffron network. You will be surprised that there is quite a mass who are quite open (you needn't agree with them) and not loony jingoistic caricatures.
I am politically agnostic and a realist. And I was very surprised that I faced least shoe horning by RSS. Yes, certain factions are louder right now but there is always someone in the network which quietly wields and uses the stick.
The real reason the TMC wins is because of freebies and doles to the poor, that’s it. Same as the BJP in MP. Nothing to do with Bangladeshis and Rohingyas.
So a TMC victory is absolutely certain IMO. Why doesn’t the NUJS admin then go full steam ahead with the impending agenda: second campus, honorary LLD to the CM, chair professorships to pro-regime judges etc? Or will the new VC be reluctant?
