Snehashish RoyJanuary 22, 20220

The half-a-century old memories of the iconic Amar Jawan Jyoti, burning beneath the arches of the India Gate, have been thwarted after it was ceremonially extinguished. The desacralization of the flame that had burned in honour of the fallen soldiers since 1972 is an uncharitable move by the ruling BJP to meddle with India's complex history and demolish the material markers of its history. The ruling BJP party, the evident subsidiary of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), has time and again proved itself to tactically bring about a tectonic shift to intrude into the Indian psyche and evoke the pristine past of Hindutva. The Centre has been attempting to mystify the country's history by replacing facts with myths and uncharted information in bulks. Confounding Ideological Quandar...

NEET-PG Counselling: SC Notes Reservation Is Not Against Merit; Says, Competitive Exams Do Not Reflect Economic And Social Benefits

Gunjan ChaudharyJanuary 20, 20220

The Supreme Court on Thursday said that reservation is not contrary to merit but furthers its distributive effect. The remark was made by the apex court while upholding the 27% all-India quota for the Other Background Classes (OBC) and 10% quota for the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) during NEET-PG counselling. "Competitive exams do not reflect economic social advantage, which is accrued to some classes. Merit should be socially contextualised.

Monomita NagJanuary 20, 20220

The crossing over of "illegal Bangladeshis" has been a central part of the discussion since BJP came to power in 2014. The party even introduced the Citizenship (Amendment) Act for the same.
