Is Aligarh Muslim University really Allah Miyan’s University or is it already a national university of great repute? Is AMU a succession state of Mughals? Are AMU authorities ‘incestuous clubs’? Is it necessary to abolish the university’s Court? I ask these questions after reading ThePrint article titled ‘AMU can be Indian National University, not remain Allah Miyan’s University in Ashraaf hands’, authored by one Ibn Khaldun Bharati. Education in India has been a liberating force. The classical Indian educational system founded by Hindu sages paved the way for the great Indian civilisation. The hallmark of India’s ancient educational system was the complete autonomy to the Gurukuls. Our new National Education Policy (2020) does talk about greater autonomy to the educational institutions that perform well. A university must bring the universe of knowledge to its campus. The democratic governance model of the university envisages autonomy to the university bodies under the watchful eyes of the government. AMU has A+ rank from the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC). It has always been ranked among the top Indian universities by national and international agencies and therefore the analogy of “lotus eaters” used by the author for the people running the university is wrong. To expand AMU acronym as Allah Miyan’s University is in bad taste and nothing less than negating the Constitution. Entry number 63 of Union List mentions AMU, BHU (Banaras Hindu University) and DU (Delhi University) as the institutions under the exclusive jurisdiction of Parliament. In fact, if one reads entries 62-65, it would become clear that the Constituent Assembly deemed AMU as ‘National Institution’. Assuming one has a problem with the word ‘Muslim’ in AMU but then Muslim does not mean that one is anti-national. Muslims are very much national. Love of their country is half of their.

Pulwama Matryrs’ Kin Protest in Jaipur: A ‘Pilot Project’ for Cong vs Cong Again in Rajasthan?

Agency News: Jaipur

The scenes of protest by the Pulwama martyrs’ families is making the central Congress leadership edgy and sit up.

Widows of three Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) jawans from Rajasthan, who were killed in the 2019 Pulwama terror attack, have been protesting since February 28.

They have been camping outside former Deputy Chief Minister Sachin Pilot’s residence in Jaipur since Monday.No, it’s not just that the party is worried that it could be used by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to accuse the Congress of being against the Army and anti-national. It is making it wonder whether this is yet another instance of shadow

boxing between Pilot and CM Ashok Gehlot.This, because Gehlot in a detailed statement, explained why meeting the demand of the martyrs’ family would set a bad precedent and take away the priority which should be reserved for the immediate family of martyrs. The worry is that the dharna has been taking place also outside the Jaipur residence of Pilot and the former deputy CM has met with the family. Not just this, Pilot has also appealed to the state government to help out.

He apparently referred to his former deputy Manish Sisodia as Prahlad.“Hiranyakashipu had started considering himself God. He made several attempts to stop

Prahlad from walking on the path of God and committed atrocities on him. Even today, some people have started considering themselves God. Prahlad, who is serving the country and children has been put in jail. Neither were they able to stop Prahlad at that time, nor will they be able to do so now,” he said in a tweet in Hindi.

James Cameron’s Avatar: The Way of Water to premiere digitally on March 28

Boeing Co said on Friday it would set up a facility in India to convert 737 passenger planes into dedicated freighters to tap into regional and global demand for the service. The investment, which adds to the U.S. manufacturer’s expansion into India on top of a record plane order by flag carrier Air India, comes despite a global economic slowdown that has weakened the global air cargo market.

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) said global cargo demand in January fell almost 15% year-on-year. Air freight rates are 28% below the levels seen at the same time last year, data provider WorldACD said on Thursday. But in India growing e-commerce demand and manufacturing of smart phones and other electronics for domestic

use and export is strengthening the outlook for freighters, Salil Gupte, Boeing’s India president told in New Delhi. Gupte said there was demand to convert more than 1,700 passenger planes globally into freighters over the next 20 years, with about 600 coming from Asia. ”So it is only fitting that we have the capability to have a line to make those freighters here in India, not just for India, but for the region and for the world,” he said. Boeing with partner GMR Aero Technic, an Indian maintenance, repair and overhaul provider, will over the next 18 months set up the facility in Hyderabad to convert old passenger planes into freighters.
