The oath to establish an environment rooted in nationalism at the historic Sri Aurobindo-inspired campus of Jadavpur University marks an important assertion of national values. The resolve to confront the politics of “Dimaagi Naxalism” and those selectively defending it is equally significant.

West Bengal’s BJP double-engine government will ensure that campuses remain spaces for knowledge, debate and nation-building—not platforms for slogans against the armed forces, glorification of terrorists or Naxal violence, denigration of freedom fighters, or narratives that question India’s unity and integrity.

PM Modi government has demonstrated that Naxalism can be decisively defeated. The same resolve will ensure that its ideological manifestations do not find permanent shelter in academic spaces. Good that Chief Minister of #WestBengal @SuvenduWB has firmly called out these intellectual vandals and vowed to clean up the dirt! The @abpanandatv must avoid indulging in “political” reporting and lower its standards!

Nationalism must prevail over extremism, and truth over manufactured outrage. #JadavpurUniversity #Nationalism #SriAurobindo #DimagiNaxalOut #NationalismIn #DimagiNaxals


Bhanumati ka kunba. 
Though D D upadhyay created worthwhile frame of integral humanism based on Adishankara and Sri Aurobindo, sanghis made chatai out of his chiti (collective national consciousness) and put that chatai in party offices for lateral bhanumati entrants to squat.
