Two days have passed, and despite huge outrage over the UGC equity regulations, no one from the govt has taken cognizance. Doing something about it is a distant matter, they haven’t even acknowledged the concerns.
Come on, man! How hard is it? If you can’t roll it back because you fear your appeasement groups will get angry, at least add a provision stating that all castes can be victims of caste-based discrimination and that falses cases will have penalty. Can’t even do that?
Is it acceptable to you that general category students are openly called slur words? Because that’s exactly what happens in universities. Street gatherings, protests, seminars, and lectures are organized on campuses to openly demonize general category students.
A few days ago, I saw a video of university students with dafli chanting, “Tilak, tarazu aur talwar, inko maaro joote chaar! Brahmin, Baniya, Thakur chor, baaki saare DS4.” Have you ever seen any general category group organizing a similar hate event against the reserved category students on university campuses?
Unless the govt is fine with general students being abused and framed in false allegations, I can’t see any logical reason to roll out these regulations.
