Sir,
Just after breaking free from the yoke of British Empire, the top contemporary thinkers, leaders, educationists thought of creating various universities to impart quality higher education to the upcoming younger generation across the National spectrum. The underlying aim and vision was to activate inherent humane soft skills, to cultivate patriotism, moral values in young minds to churn out the best products in the persona of sensitive and responsible students dedicated to the national cause. No doubt the purpose is being rightly served pan India with the exception of few universities like JNU which have been led astray as a sequel to gross mismanagement by the vested interests. Universities were conceived to be sacred abode for higher education and learning but JNU type of Institutions have deviated from their goal and contrarily have got converted into party politics. Presently whatever is happening in JNU campus is highly condemnable and dreadful.
All the activities relating to curriculum or extra-curricular must be put under scanner together with the faculty staff. Bring them at par with other universities so far as fee structure and related charges are concerned. No special treatment. There is no denying the fact that we are one of the best Democracy in the world and allow reasonably permissible freedom/ liberty under the constitution. But It has a limit. Freedom stops where it hurts the nation and majority of the patriotic masses. Youth are our real strength, therefore, we cannot afford to give a free hand to any Tom Dick and Harry to play spoil sport. We shall have to dive deep into the matter to uproot the malaise. Our beloved country is not intolerant to any ideology, philosophy or school of thought, it may be capitalism, communism or any other system of Governance but all these concepts are subservient to the concept of Nationalism and this is globally acceptable as well. Call spade a spade, talk to the unruly elements firmly from the position of strength and authority for final resolution.
