Gujarat institution founded by Gandhi invites governor to be chancellor, crystallising a pattern
the Gujarat Vidyapith council in a 13-9 vote decided to invite Gujarat governor Acharya Devvrat to take over as chancellor of the Vidyapith.
In October 1920, Mahatma Gandhi had written a two-line letter to Vidyagauri Nilkanth, one of the first women graduates from Gujarat: “I have always wanted Gujarat Vidyapith to be established. It goes without saying that the government will have no say in its affairs.”
Fearlessness Is Now Part Of Aesthetic Experience For Writers, Artists: Ganesh Devy https://www.outlookindia.com/national/fearlessness-is-now-part-of-aesthetic-experience-for-writers-artists-ganesh-devy-news-218885 Writers from 78 countries recently attended the PEN event. Several among them had gone to prison for protesting against governments, experienced assaults on life and survived.
The term ‘Dakshinayan’ itself, Devy said, has multiple interpretations. It is also represents an astronomical phase during which nights are longer than days on account of the trajectory of the earth’s revolution around the sun.
“It refers to a period of depression. Period where worries are multiplied and of course in India for the last several millennia power is concentrated in the north. So it is necessary to challenge the powers that be while speaking in the name of Dakshin (south) so that the country’s federal structure is protected,” Devy said.
The weighed down ecosystem, says Devy, has also sparked new literary trends in the country, especially among already marginalised groups.
“…after 2014, these Dalit writers were not just writing about resistance to caste discrimination but to fascism. Similarly, feminist writers have turned their attention to the question of a totalitarian state not just patriarchal society,” Devy said.

Pradeep All (a)around
It was 1974, when VISTAS, an organisation co-founded by Pradeep, with him as General Secretary went about the task of putting their ideas into practice. And in typical Pradeep Style, all of it was self-thought, self taught, and self-worked out. At this self-designed training course - no internet then, nor wikipedia each one of us had to pick up on a theme which they felt was relevant, while some of us picked up books like Summer Hill, Tools for Conviviality, Pradeep explained "Lateral Thinking" by Edward de Guha! He drew a cros on the top right hand side of the board, and a circle near the bottom to signify where we are. He started dancing the chalk all over the board, and spoke of how each point viewed the objective till he felt we had a clear shot at the objective and then arrowed the chal straight to the objective in a quite decisive action.
During the same training course Pradeep bundled all 14 of us to see Alyque's Jesus Christ Superstar. On our return to the Bandra Centre where we were holed out, we re-jiged the whole play, with Pradeep taking the part played by Nandu Bhende... My mind is clearer now.. At last all to well I can see where we all soon will be.
This image of Pradeep keeps popping up, when I consider all the times we spend together, as well as the few but intensive interaction we have had since his joining the media and entertianment industry. From Taposh, that bright young boy in Laksmi Court in Wadala through Pradeep the Activist, and the Csar, this seems to be the play.
When we at Doccentre, then a project of Vistas, which Pradeep took over after the objective seems unattainable, took up the task. Where we were was a bunch of clippings pasted on the pages of Corporate Annual Reports piled up by Pradeeps dad in the loft of 201/3 Laksmi Court. He looked at what the times reference system and its manila envellopes, and various systems --, godrej filings used by other centres. The hit the Box Files as it had adjustable clips with space for large label on the spine. There was another aspect. We bauked at the use of fresh paper, as the early stirrings of the environment spoke predominantly about the trees, and our pockets were quite empty. He soon made a deal with the waste newsprint department at the times.. But along with such brilliance, Pradeep combined the meticulous. He one finger typed out the CED Classification system on our Old Godrej, several drafts of them, all spaced out and charted, from notes off a flip pad, to tab and space bar even as we were discussing arguing indeed labouring every point..
And he had the ability to work round as well as to the clock. Just as he flourished to the end of a task - Full point and Rolled out the paper, he glanced at his watch and of a frenzied finish "now we go to New Empire (or Excelsior or even far away Naaz). Jump into a cab and reach just in time for the main show. So we had this full life.

Assam’s Bengali-origin Muslims face disenfranchisement and indignity
National Register of Citizens (NRC). Originally developed in 1951 as part of independent India’s first census, this misleadingly titled registry is supposed to contain a list of “official”—or “legal”—Indian residents of Assam. In 2019, the Indian Supreme Court completed the NRC’s first update since its inception to detect “doubtful” voters, but the NRC does not determine citizenship, nor does it correct the voter list. During the process, which began in 2015 and was funded by the federal government, Assam’s state government reviewed some sixty-six million documents submitted by over thirty million applicants. Those who didn’t make the final draft were likely to face detention or deportation.
Meanwhile, at a federal level, the BJP passed the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), paving the way for the naturalization of all non-Muslim migrants who came to India before December 31, 2014 from Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. The BJP claims that the CAA is a humanitarian gesture intended to help religious minorities fleeing surrounding countries, despite the law making clear that all other non-Muslim religions were exempt from new citizenship checks—that in effect, it codified the selective disenfranchisement of Muslims as a whole.
Speaking on condition of anonymity, a retired Border Police official told me that since 2007, each Border branch was given a monthly quota, and, if unmet, the BP would not pay their salary or punish them in some other way. It’s not difficult to imagine that police officials fabricated false cases under these circumstances. Officials would even use registers of village surveys in a local station to easily pick off names to charge. “This is what happens when you’re working under pressure to report ten to fifteen cases every month,” the official said. The quotas, of course, are not recorded in any official communiqué by the higher authorities.
