Recent Student agitation in Visva Bharati & the Media Exposure






The recent student agitation in Bengal is in its new dimension. There should be debate if they are doing right or Wrong. It is said that the Students are the pillars and future of the Society. Students  have the duty in this society to maintain the well being. Students do not compromise with any negative things. The role of students in every revolution in this world is memorable. Student is not just a term, it is a symbol . Everybody has enough respect for this term.
But in now a days, the agitation of students in every sector is intolerable. The are doing agitation for their absurd demand. The issues such as Quota system in Visva Bharati. The local guys of Bolpur-Santiniketan think that Visva Bharati is their own property. And The central varsity is Like “Bhubandanga College” . The maximum of its staff and students belongs to local area. It is a confrontation between Globalism and Regionalism. In UGC rule their should be equal opportunity for all to get admission in all the University and it will be based on merit not by grouping. If the people of the Kharagpur thinks that they should have first priority to get admission in IIT-Kharagpur, everyone say that it is absurd. Because the admission is totally based on the merit list came form Joint Entrance Exam. But in this Varsity there is two system one is admission through merit and Second one is admission of Staff ward. They assumes that it is their fundamental right to be promoted in all the School to University level without any hesitation. And it is also their birth right to get first preference to the various types of Job. If anybody want to break this tradition , they will stop the system. The will do massacre.

The agitatators are becoming more enthusiasm from the Media Coverage. The copies of national media and by-line copies in esteemed dailies boosting the agitators. They are giving bytes to the media, as they are doing this agitation for a very noble cause.
