Public universities deserve a new lease of life - The Tribune (opens the original)
Read excerpt
IN this age of intolerance, a disturbing thought has begun to haunt me. Is it that the political establishment no longer feels the worth of intellectually vibrant and academically enriched inclusive public universities? Otherwise, how do we explain the continual assault on some of our leading public universities? Think of, for instance, the recent turmoil in Jadavpur University — possibly the most well-known academic institution in West Bengal. The BJP government in Bengal, it seems, is not part
Teachers must rise to save education - The Tribune (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I have no hesitation in saying that I feel happy when my students send me their wishes on the occasion of Teachers’ Day and recall those beautiful days of working and evolving together. And with deep gratitude, I too recall many great educationists who shaped my ways of engaging with the vocation of teaching. Of course, I invoke Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan — his scholarship and philosophical insights. I recall Savitribai Phule — her courage and dedication to spread the light of awakening among the

I am shocked because India is placed in the bottom 10-20% of 179 countries on academic freedom.

Read excerpt
EVERYTHING, as the Establishment would like us to believe, is in order. Dharmendra Pradhan — the controversial minister — has finally resigned. Our techno-savvy Prime Minister Narendra Modi has 'forgiven' the Cockroach generation. THE TRIBUNE, India’s oldest, daily English-language newspaper, was first published on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan), and save for 40 days in the immediate aftermath of Partition, has come out every day over the last 145 years. THE TRIBUNE was started by
When students refuse silent obedience - The Tribune (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Recently, during an interaction with a group of Class XII students in Varanasi, a bright young girl asked me a question: “Sir, what do you think about what is happening in the national capital — thousands of young students overcoming their fear, facing the brutality of the police force and expressing their concerns about the legitimacy of the National Testing Agency, or the absence of even minimal moral accountability on the part of the government and the Minister concerned?” The recurrence of p
