JN 'U'?

These Students showcase the best and the most comprehensive use of their "Fundamental Right to Protest" but did they forget the reasonable restrictions which come with it?

Are they really the future of our country or are they destabilizing the same.

Is the protest truly politically motivated or are the parties playing their politics?

In this blog I would try and answer all the above questions in a very peaceful manner.

Jawaharlal Nehru National University is a Tier-1 university of our country with the highest cut offs among all the other universities.

It might not be clearly visible but it is situated in Delhi the national and natural capital of our country i.e Delhi.

Alleged Anti national activities in JNU have always been much talked about throughout our country but have they been proved?

And especially the Video which has surfaced online of them dismantling the Vivekananda Statue can be done by some other miscreants and not the people who are actually affected by the conditions on the hostel.

The only purpose with which I am writing this blog is to explain how profoundly can a person or group can use a fundamental right. Neither am I in support of the students nor the authorities but naming an individual an Anti- National is a very big step and the "Supreme court of Instagram" should refrain from doing such things.

Now lets go through some facts about the much talked about JNU hostel room.

In the video above we can see that the hostels are in a pathetic condition and the administration it seems is on a repeat mode saying "Saying admin ke paisa nahi hai".

The only argument I want to put forward is that if they are really the future of our country don't they have the right to stay healthy.

the executive council at Jawaharlal Nehru University, the institute's highest decision-making body, revised the hostel fee hike which had led to massive protests from students on campus. In a press note released by the JNU administration the same day, the monthly room rent, which is currently Rs 20 and Rs 10 for double and single-occupancy respectively, was revised to Rs 300 and Rs 150, from the proposed Rs 600 and Rs 300.

The refundable mess security was also slashed from the proposed Rs 12,000 to Rs 5,500. However, the contentious ‘service charges’, which will come to around Rs 1,700 per month, have been retained. For students hailing from Below Poverty Line backgrounds (BPL), a 50 percent concession was offered in the service, utility, and room charges.

In my opinion and I give this by stating the fact that even I left my home and went to study in Mumbai which is one of the costliest cities in India for students and as a matter of fact money does matter be it Rs 12,000 or Rs 5,500. Isliye ye bolna ki itne paise tho ye de sakte h iss a but a naive kyuki vo vaha paise kamane nahi gaye hai tho denge kaise.

Another important aspect is the difference is between increasing and doubling the fees the main reason for the protest was the immediate increase whereas this could have done progressively.

Hence as far as the protests are concerned I feel they are valid for the sole reason that they were not violent and within the purview of their Right and knowing the fact that this a public funded university the authorities should keep this in mind that they should first provide them with basic hygienic facilities and only then can they demand such fees.
