Being a part of a democratic country I know at least to a basic extent what democracy means. Institute proudly refers the election conducted by it as a democratic one. I not being a great critic but has strong feel against the word. 1st of all in election all the people who are expected to be mature enough can contest. In India we determine it by having a minimum age limit. But our great insti rules determine it by cgpa. By having such a weird standard does it want to show that people below 7.0 cgpa are not capable enough for any post of responsibility? So called job of responsibility are mainly concerned with management job, and what we are given cgpa is for technical courses which have little direct implication. Even in India we have ministers with minimal educational background, but who have done wonders. Then we have great ‘U’ and ‘W’ rule you get one …… your life gets fucked off. For this point junta we have a lively exam our great MaxP, he used to be a multi talented guy before coming to this democratic place. In IITM u can get disqualified for just writing your name wrong. Can I ask how many of my south Indian friends know what their name is exactly on the institute database?
And if all this were not enough we got NCC thing. The people who have bunked the only camp held in last two years are not eligible for contesting. Is our country Israel??? Are we part of NDA? Do we need to have compulsory military training for our people? Even in all the country having compulsory military training they have one every quarter of a year. We are in IIT were we supposed to be among the most intelligent people of India. To develop our intelligence we need some space in our life. Making us do parade in the very 1st holiday …is some heck rule. We are that time a bit too much emotionally attached and want to rush to our home … and depriving us of the opportunity can mentally kill someone.
