Where are they now?? Can you imagine the reaction if a pro-BJP VC had done this??
FM would have come out as a hero if he did everything except slap the errant student, he could have shouted, scolded, even physically restraint as the registrar was trying to do to FM after the slap
FM saw that the student hit the police, he wanted to immediately intervene, he knew that the police were on their way out, he just lost it when at the last moment there was this juncture of potential full reversal and the possibility of police coming back
would other people have done it differently, perhaps, some would have not come out of VC lodge, some would have come the next day, FM tried, almost succeeded but faltered on the last step
i am trying to psychoanalyse the situation on a lazy sunday, is it a good leadership on part of FM? yes and No. is the slap justifiable? Not really. Do we want action against FM? No as long as he does the same thing what he did in Nalsar.
OVN is likely waiting out for things to settle after May 4. Depending on results, he will makes his bets. In any case NUJS is a pit stop.
Also let's not make a saint out of FM. He supported his pal PJ while the latter hollowed out Patiala. Good that students and alumni called out FM when he kept crowning his broken record.
When a student filed a complaint against him to the CJ and requested that he not be given another term, his spies informed him about it. He then called the student to his office, asked him to deposit his mobile phone with his PA, and what happened next inside the office can be imagined. He reportedly did the same with a faculty member who then filed a formal complaint against him with the State SC/ST Commission. It seems he has still not learned his lesson. Its time to call him out for his misconduct.
Faizan Mustafa deserves better.
most likely outcome: vc would call an open forum next week and apologise, say that he was trying to get the police out of the hostel, when a student hit a policeman, he lost his calm and was trying to de-escalate by ensuring that the student gets punished immediately so that police does not start a case against them
reminds me of the Bart-Edna episode https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LVA8UnjopU
What was the reason if any one from boys hostel can confirm the same?
