    This is anti-science policy on a level somewhere between Iran and Afganistan. Even if were to last just a week, it's a clear sign to anyone in academia that the government will NOT be providing a stable framework for research. For any work in fundamental science, astrophysics, medicine, new green tech, this could well be disastrous.

  5. "The core ideology of the statehood movement was anti-Dalit and anti-reservation." Right!

    Did some research: https://www.india-seminar.com/2022/757/757-13-RAJESH%20JOSHI.htm?

    The answer can be found in the circumstances that led to the sudden eruption of people’s anger. The demand for a separate hill state was not new, but it remained dormant for over six decades and could never capture the imagination of most of the people of Uttarakhand. The idea of a separate administrative unit comprising the hill districts of Kumaon and Garhwal was first floated in 1929 by a group of pro-British people of Kumaon. They submitted a memorandum to the Lieutenant Governor of the United Provinces, Malcolm Hailey, demand­ing autonomy for British Kumaon (Uttarakhand).1 Since then, the demand kept cropping up inter­mittently but without any conse­quence, until 1994 when the UP government under Chief Minister Mulayam Singh Yadav decided to implement the Mandal Commission recommendations extending 27% quota for the OBCs in government jobs and an equal percentage of seats for them in state-owned educational institutions across the state.

    This decision angered the pre­dominantly upper caste populace of the hill districts. They argued that the reservation policy was suited to the caste equations of the plains where the OBCs had a sizeable population. But the same policy could not be mechan­ically implemented in the hill areas where the OBC population was not more than 2%. A common refrain at the height of the pro-Uttarakhand movement was: ‘you give us a separate state and we will formulate our own reservation policy’. This essentially meant that the benefits recommended by the Mandal Com­mission could be severely diluted or altered in the new state of Uttarakhand where Brahmins and Thakurs con­stitute around 60% of the population.
    The implicit message wrapped in this justification of a separate state was not lost on Dalits and OBCs. And the anti-reservation (read anti-Dalit) overtones of the agitation were too loud and too obvious to be ignored. Even though the upper castes themselves were benefitting from the quota system as seats were reserved in medical and engineering colleges for the students from the border areas.

    Dalit leader and former (he completed his Rajya Sabha tenure on 4 July 2022) Congress Rajya Sabha MP from Almora, Pradip Tamta was among those who identified the all-pervasive anti-Dalit bias in the Uttarakhand movement right at its initial stages.As a left-leaning activist back then, Tamta, along with some other Dalit leaders, submitted a memorandum to the President of India requesting him to safeguard the interests of the Dalit community in the face of the anti-reservation fervour getting louder and louder.

    Tamta recalls how a section of people associated with the Uttara­khand movement revealed their deep-seated prejudice against Dalits, who were subjected to casteist slurs and verbal humiliation during the movement. This prejudice became manifest when a march was organized in Almora to protest against Mulayam Singh Yadav’s reservation policy. On the face of it, the protest was against the 27% reservation for the OBCs, but since the OBCs constitute less than 2% of the total population in the hill area, the protesters vented their anger against the idea of reservation per se.
    While passing through the lanes of Almora town, the march stopped at a Dalit neighbourhood and the protesters started inflicting caste-related insults at the residents and shouted anti-reservation slogans to provoke the Dalits. The District Magistrate, himself a Dalit, deployed a heavy police force and managed to avert a major caste confrontation. This incident left no doubt in the minds of the Dalits that they would not be treated any better should a new state come into existence.

    The Almora rally was not the only instance when anti-Dalit caste bias amongst a section of the protesters came out in the open. Slogans like ‘Mulayam Singh ch***a hai, Mayawati ku***a hai’ (Mulayam is a nincompoop and Mayawati is a b***h) ranted the air during an unruly pro-Uttarakhand rally held in Delhi on 2 October 1994. What had fuelled the anger against the two leaders – then coalition partners in the UP government – was the killing of six protesters in police firing the night before in Muzaffarnagar, where the district administration stopped and harassed the protesters coming from the hills to join the planned rally in Delhi. Police were also accused of rape and molestation of some women protesters.

  19. How many of you think that NEET life is the best life?

    7 months
    It sounds glamorous early on, like a kid who doesn't have to go to school because he's sick. Everyone's jealous of you, they have to wake up on time, learn stuff, deal with teachers and bullies and cliques while you get to stay at home in bed all day watching TV and playing computer and have your mommy take care of you.


    But then as years and decades pass you keep staying at home as you grow old and your friends complain about school but it's thru that they learn to interact with people and make connections and friendships and then the lifestyle you've thought was so glamorous and your friends so jealous of, has lead you to no where. And you realize that the "free time" you've had that other people complained about not having, weren't spent learning about new hobbies or skills or networking or anything productive, but rather wasted on bedrotting, oversleeping, tiktok, gaming, and masturbating. But hey at least you're not falling into scams or getting injured or whatever right?


    If you're unlucky, you'll be sucked into this lifestyle like a lotus eating machine, thinking you don't "need" to work, while your self esteem takes hit after hit as you age and everyone eventually passes you by. Until one day something happens and you snap out of your stupor only to realize it's been so long since you've been stuck that you no longer know how to get yourself out of it.


    If you're lucky, you'll snap out of it way earlier and you're young enough that opportunities are still there and friends and family are still willing to help you .
