“To be fair to him, he did not shy away from taking questions..”

It is nice and pacifying to learn that our “Management Seat” young neta has evolved enough and is now competent enough to be in power politics. Good Luck to the PM in anticipation and to our Mother Land!

Sunilji and Smitha,

Slogan shouting and black flags are an indispensable part of the democratic culture in JNU campus. The leftists shouted slogans and showed black flags to Manmohand and Rahul while the Youth for Equality [opposing caste-based reservations] have done the same to former MHRD Arjun Singh.

To any outsider, it may appear a bit improper but that is how it is here and we all like it [more or less]! Sometimes it is irritating certainly but lack of it will be very boring.

Personally I am not in awe of Prince of Congress…

but this is slightly crude leftist remark…

As he was leaving, the leftist student shouted slogans:

“Sonia Gandhi ko bhejo mail, Rahul Gandhi ka ho gaya tel!

Manmohan ko bhejo mail, Rahul Gandhi ka ho gaya tel!

Chaurasi ke dangaiyon ko, ek dhakka aur do!

Amrika ke dalalon ko, ek dhakka aur do!

Yesterday, I read in the paper about the Rahul Gandhi’s visit to JNU campus and was thinking why it is not on you blog and today I see it. I somehow found Rahul Gandhi very rational and balanced with his approach and answers. It is sad that people instead of discussing problems and solutions believe in slogan shouting.How is that going to help . The question that always bothers me when will stop being people centric ?
A very interesting report I enjoyed reading it and I truly found it informative as you have sketched the whole thing in a very nice way…

As always, a great, well balanced, and apolitical documentation of life at JNU. Keep it coming!
