Opinion: The Lynching Of Jawahar Lal Nehru University

ABP News  

Jawaharlal Nehru University, or JNU as it is known in Delhi and beyond, has once again been in the news for the last three weeks. The university and nearby residential colonies have been swarming with police, but the students have been successful in taking their demonstrations to many parts of central Delhi and the area around Parliament. That, some might argue, says little considering that no Indian university, going by the Times’ Higher Education World University Rankings, ranks within the world’s top 300 institutions of higher education, and JNU falls within the 601-800 rankings. Whatever distinctions its graduates and faculty have earned in the academic sphere, in scientific research, or in public life, many of them have shown that in a modern civilized society it is imperative that the university be safeguarded as one of the last bastions of free speech and dissent.
