“The Leftist ecosystem still exists. You know, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court opened the court on a Saturday night to give Teesta Setalvad bail. Will it happen for us,” she asked while speaking at the launch of Marathi book ‘Jagala Pokharnari Davi Walvi’ (World-weakening Leftist Termites) in Pune. Pandit had served as a professor in the Political Science department at the Savitribai Phule Pune University in Maharashtra." https://theprint.in/india/will-it-happen-for-us-asks-jnu-vc-on-sc-granting-relief-to-setalvad-on-a-saturday-night/1766354/
“To retain political power, you need (to have) narrative power. We need to have it. Unless we attain it, we will be like a directionless ship,” she said. She recalled her childhood association with RSS-affiliated organisations. She said, “I was a ‘Bal Sevika’ in my childhood. I got my sanskars (values) from the RSS only. I am proud to say that I belong to the Sangh (RSS) and I am proud to say that I am a Hindu. I do not hesitate at all.” “Garv se kehti hu main Hindu hoon,” she repeated, with the audience shouting ‘Jai Shri Ram’. “Left and RSS are individual ideologies. There has been a major paradigm shift post-2014 in the conflict between these two ideologies,” she said. Pandit, who was appointed as the JNU VC in February last year
Referring to the upcoming Nalanda University in Bihar, she said, “I recently visited the Nalanda University at Bakhtiyarpur. We should change that Bakhtiyarpur name. What kind of name is that.” On the country’s ancient civilisation, she said, “Our Bharatiya civilisation is superior, feminist and greatest in the world. Draupadi is the first feminist and not one Simone De Beauvoir (French philosopher). Our civilisation is nature-centric.

Bhagwat accused leftists of attempting to corrupt American culture and questioned their self-proclaimed status as scientists. https://english.pardaphash.com/rss-chief-mohan-bhagwat-criticizes-leftists-influence-on-education-and-culture/ By Rekha Joshi Updated Date September 18, 2023 Bhagwat pointed to an incident in a Gujarat school where kindergarten teachers were instructed to assess whether KG-2 students knew the names of their private body parts. He considered this a manifestation of the leftist agenda infiltrating educational institutions and undermining traditional cultural values.
The RSS chief also highlighted an example from the United States, where, after a change in government leadership, policies were implemented in schools allowing students to self-identify their gender and use corresponding restrooms. Bhagwat questioned the impact of such cultural shifts and expressed concerns about the moral fabric of society.
The last part is significant.. also because there is a narrative among the Younger Left, that is searching for Nature, Life meaning, Culture, Decolonisation..
“Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam” Mother of All Jumlas!? 23 September 2023 by Sukla Sen Mainstream, VOL 61 No 39 September 23, 2023 http://www.mainstreamweekly.net/article13834.html two significant departures. One, the title has undergone a very radical and, arguably, silly (or sinister?) transformation. Two, the implementation of this Bill even afterenactment would have to wait for census and, then, delimitation.
All in all, the Special Session of the Parliament, which also sort of inaugurated the New Parliament Building, it’s now more than amply clear, was meant to precisely pass the Nari Shakti Vandan Adhiniyam to hold up Narendra Modi as the God’s chosen one to champion the causes of women — while actually doing precious little — and camouflage his actual track record as illustrated by e.g. the premature release of eleven convicted gang rapists in the Bilkis Bano case as a part of the celebration of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav [24], atrocities in Hathras (ref.: https://www.outlookindia.com/national/revisiting-hathras-a-timeline-of-how-the-case-unfolded-news-266802), and Manipur [25].
Kincentric ecology is both an emergent and ancient worldview and field of practice. Rooted in a deep sense of our belonging with all life, it places humans as part of nature and recognises the more than human world as bestowed with intelligence, sensibilities, subjecthood and intentionality. To ensure right relationship with this vast community of life requires a deep acknowledgement of our interbeing - and requires us to act as kin. https://www.kincentricleadership.org/
Kincentric leadership aims to embed this way of thinking and acting into our strategy and decision-making as we navigate the polycrisis - no matter which field we act within. It acknowledges that wise practices and decsions requires humans to respect, understand and work with the intelligence of the more than human world, and that our own thriving is intimately bound up with the integrity and health of the whole community of life
Inner Climate Academy and Kincentric Leadership are working towards laying the foundations for a new paradigm of leadership and polycrisis mitigation, grounded in kincentric ecology. We will be weaving together groundbreaking science into the intelligence, consciousness and agency of the more than human world with indigenous worldviews and practices to push the boundaries of what we think is possible as leaders and human beings facing crisis.
