The fate of those excluded from NRC will haunt India: Senior advocate Sanjay Hegde

When the initial application of NRC took place in Assam, we were part of a huge mistake. It should have been boycotted.

My name was there is all drafts of the NRC. Its never about me. The NRC is a farce. Its fundamentally wrong.

There are a lot of people who cannot produce those ridiculous documents, specially the poor and the uneducated.

Please do all that you can to create the awareness to #BoycottNRC nationwide.

The only thing really heartening about the ongoing JNU protests is that the teachers of JNU are out in the streets in support of the students fighting the good fight.

Teachers like Geeta Bhatt are a disgrace to the profession.
Teachers all over the country, if you are done with your lectures about how you build the nation, learn to walk the talk. You are hear solely for your students. Not for playing entourage to any corrupt administration or government.

JNU Fee Hike: Facts vs Hype

In this episode of Reality Check, as the debate intensifies over the protests by Jawaharlal Nehru University students, a hard look at the numbers reveal that JNU's fees will be on an average 70 per cent more than other centrally funded universities.

For the spineless Delhi Police which houses an IPS officer who couldn't muster courage to register an FIR even after she was molested, the visually impaired Shashi Bhushan Pandey was an easy catch. The sole bread-earning member of his family, the 23-year old Shashi was admitted to AIIMS because of injuries that he sustained after Amit Shah's Delhi Police had kicked him on his chest with boots.

'Why protest if you're blind', say Delhi police, beat up visually impaired JNU student

#JNU: We are fighting for the right to education for students!

Bhakts: We are fighting to see Student of the Year sequel, Jai Shri Ram!

If your pride about Abhijit Banerjee is only because you share his mother tongue, then you are actually a pseudo-intellectual.

If the only way you know to reply back is with profanity, then I am sorry but your academic degrees mean zilch!!

If you believe that Tagore must be confined to Bengal, and Periyar to Tamil Nadu, then accept my apologies and start reading both of them!!
Your narrow-mindedness cannot confine the school of thought that Tagore, Periyar or other legends represent

A lot of right-wing baiters are of the belief that they automatically belong to the box of progressive-minded people.

But I am sorry to say that if you lack empathy and acceptability, you just don't belong there!!

If moments of hot-headedness makes a Bengali (I am a Bengali) tell a Gujarati “Eat your dhoklas, and shut up”, she/he fails as an Indian.

If a South Indian tells a North Indian, “You belong to a land of crass gutka-chewing people”, she/he fails as a human being.

Retd. Major General S P Sinha followed the footsteps of Savarkar and cried “Rape for rape” on national television.

Makes me quiver when I wonder if this scum on the face of earth has ever enjoyed the protection of AFSPA!!

Caught on TV: Ex-Army officer wants ‘death for death, rape for rape’ in favour of Kashmiri Pandits

Some members of the audience supported the former officer’s views.

Will the identification of 'Urban Naxals' be done as per the law book authored by the hate-peddlar Vivek Agnihotri?

Amit Shah asks CRPF to go after "urban Naxals and their facilitators"

Union Home Minister asks the force to carry out an effective campaign against Left Wing Extremism

Also, I fail to understand what the outrage is all about. If East Delhi had chosen Gambhir because of Modi, then they should go and knock the PMO's door. If East Delhi had chosen Gambhir for his cricketing acumen, then they should ask him to play cricket and entertain them.

After all, you get the govt. you elect!
