Things had started to fall apart towards the end of YSR's tenure as well. The issue is extreme growth and the administration becoming very bureaucratic eventually. I know the countless emails I had written to Lokesh & others to get reading room & library infra issues fixed. Especially after the President's visit, when they had ripped apart the entire reading room to hold their meetings/dinners(?) and did a lot of goof ups when reinstalling things back.
Bureaucratic approach is the issue. Leads to /r/notmyjob kind of situations.
Otherwise, though, fully agreed. It's shameful that this is happening. Remember when Naveen said "take your money back and leave if you have such an issue" during an open-house? That attitude has trickled down completely. People misunderstood that the gherao of VC was over WiFi. It was over institutional apathy. Ignorance of all grievances by students.
The administration needs to be held accountable for such troubles to go away. I personally feel Sahni's exit was a step in the right direction re. fixing the admin. issues. It's not sufficient by any measure though.
inb4 'oh jindal students are so entitled' comments. Paying for the infrastructure — yes, literally entitled to it but being denied. Nothing wrong with it.
Surely, the amount of fee charged to us is not commensurate to the sort or pathetic, government college like services we get.
Registrar’s apathy has really got us a bad name in the press and disrepute to the university.

It’s time for Prof. Anand Mishra to take over as the registrar. After transforming the admissions office, he can surely transform the university!
- First-gen lawyers, including bright NLU grads, are discriminated against and nepo kids preferred for senior gowns etc. Does it happen in other countries?
-Lawyers should charge lakhs for 30-second hearings and cases drag on for decades. Does it happen in other countries?
Compare in-hands salaries and you'll realise how exaggerated these 20-30lpa CTCs really are.
However, SC expects stray dogs to understand and follow guidelines for feedings them at designated places.
Feeding the dogs is a Self defence mechanism for humans to keep the dogs calm, else they would attack more if they starve.
One needs to understand that dogs have designated areas and cannot venture beyond that limit, else they would be attacked by dogs of other areas.
Also, if designated places are to be created, should the dogs starve till such places are designated? This needs to be addressed.

I'm sure people here are aware that almost everything is politically influenceable, for anything which is public-office related.
(Yes even courts)
But it's very strange of you to mention two senior politicians from ▮▮▮ and their inner rivalry and then connecting it with judicial controversy of a HC judge. All while naming the title as "gossip among some lawyers"; pray tell who are these lawyers?

I think I saved myself from mental torture by not joining this place.
“While monsoons have been favourable for three consecutive years, discretionary spending has not picked up to the extent seen in earlier periods of good rainfall. The proposed GST reform is a long-awaited move and could be a game-changer, as it would boost disposable incomes, thereby driving corporate earnings growth,”
These people just don’t get it!! 😂😡 Reducing GST will only have a marginal impact. What they need to do is reduce the 30% slab to 15-20% and abolish the surcharge for 50 lpa earners, plus abolish capital gains tax. Yes, that will only affect 2% of the populace but it is this 2% that is fuelling the economy! You need to put more money in their hands, because they are not spending because of high costs and taxes! It’s like the patient’s heart is weak and you are treating the liver instead!
Also, from a fairness perspective, this 2% gives so much of their earnings in taxes, but receives nothing from the government in return. All the money is spent on wasteful doles and subsidies, plus salaries abd perks for corrupt babus!

If you waste time further and write long posts on portals like this, no good future possible.
So work hard, study and pass CS final. Combine that with your 5 year law degree. You could be all set.
