    When students tried to contact the Proctor, Rector or the Vice Chancellor, all their phone were switched off at the very same time. It was later known that they filed an FIR against the attacked students while the attack was in full swing inside Campus.

    Indiscriminate lathi charge on students in front of Bhikaji Cama Place Metro Station. Visually handicapped/physically handicapped students were not spared either.

  26. Lack of computer literacy is particularly widespread among students (and recent students) coming from marginalised groups: 76 per cent among dalits, 76 per cent among muslims, and 79 per cent among adivasis. While 62 per cent men in the group did not have computer literacy, the proportion was 72 per cent for women.

  27. As per the NSS 75th round data for 2017, among persons aged 17 years or above who are either currently enrolled in an educational institution or were enrolled until the last year, 67 per cent (77 per cent among rural and 46 per cent among urban) did not know how to operate a computer. Of these young people, 59 per cent (69 per cent among rural and 38 per cent among urban) did not know how to use internet.

  28. Earlier this year, JNU students and teachers fought the administration against shifting exclusively to computer-based multiple choice type question format for entrance to all programmes.

    Not only did our pleas to JNU administration fell on deaf ears, our plea was not heard even in court before admissions happened last year. But the battle has not ended and we must raise our voices again before admissions start for the next year.

    What is the battle about?

  29. This is outrageous!
    Delhi Police switched off the street lights and rampantly assaulted JNU students to disperse them. Hundreds have been assaulted, detained, injured, hospitalized. Visually impaired JNUSU councillor has been thrashed brutally.
    The whole Nation should come on the streets tomorrow to protest. Remember if you don't support them now, your children will not be able to have quality affordable education in future.

  31. It isn't even, about one public institution. Its about higher education in India facing tumultuous times. It's about all central universities & technical institutes, who will face this similar situation. Its about denying affordable education to them all, specially deprived ones.
    Accumulation of power, wealth, education for the chosen few. Hope, we aren't heading towards the country that talks about privileged ones and strips off the rights of those on the verge.

  33. Atleast 3318 present students in #JNU come from families earning <Rs 144000 annually! Hostel charge would be minimum 57K p/a after fee hike. Most of them won't be even able to complete their degrees! Fee Hike is Anti Poor! Education is not for sell!
