Imphal, April 13 : The decision of the Delhi University to enforce Hindi/MIL in the under-graduate courses in all the colleges/institution under it, is in all fairness, a nonsensical decision said President MPP, N Sovakiran in a letter to the PM today.
He said Who needs to be reminded that in a democracy education needs no politics, unlike in totalitarian countries. More so, in a country like India where liberal education system can only
cope with the challenges of the country’s diverse linguistic, ethnic and demographic composition; the decision of the Delhi University is all the more an antithesis against the ethos
of this country he added.
The Delhi University must understand that it is not a local or regional university that caters only the local students, but students from across the country including the Northeast.
They go to it to imbibe a national outlook; the hope to compete for top positions in the education system that are available there. It is a university with a history associated with the nation building process of modern India.
However, the vernacular-like jealots or undemocratic attitude of the authorities of the Delhi University would only hamper the educational atmosphere of the University that has been serving the students from across the country.
The policy to enforce Hindi/MIL to the undergraduate students would only do deservice to the students community of the country and the nation in general.
Therefore, Manipur People’s Party in the interests of the students of the Northeast in particular and the nation in general urged PM intervene in the matter and prevail upon the Delhi University authorities and cause to revoke the decision which is nothing but undemocratic and Talibanic in nature.
