If Ashoka, St Stephens or LSR alumni had organised something here they could have gathered noticeable numbers. Alone but proud. So my dear Aligs & others, keep applying to these places. We will increase our number too. Photo taken when they barged in & attacked AMU.

On the same day Supreme Court of India and United States delivered two judgements. Very different cases but it should teach us one thing. Middle class zealous faith in the objectivity & fairness of state institutions has led us only to abysmal depth of despair. Go back to people.

“Amish” is the norm. Nir-Amish (veg) is an aberration and personal choice. Bengali language is clear on food choices. Also “poisa diye veg keno khabo” is our natural state of being.

In a world of 91% meat-eaters, 'vegetarianism' is an aberration, and not the other way round. Avoid using 'non-veg', which insinuates 'veg' is the norm. Vegetarianism is a personal choice, not a virtue. 'Non-veg' is a silly Indian coinage, that does not work in most countries.

Inheritance tax is a good & progressive idea. Many developed countries like France practices it & their citizens approve. But without a social movement around the idea, dropping something like this would create chaos & panic cause people have little understanding what it entails

Don’t agree with Rahul Gandhi, that it is the problem of not having honest and good individual at the NTA and not the structure of the org. itself. Decentralization should be the motto. Dismantle NEET, allow state board students to prosper. Join your brother Stalin on this.
