CJP spokesperson Saurav Das on Friday accused the government of appointing 'mediocre' and 'incompetent' professors in central universities over the past decade, alleging that ideological leaning, not merit, was the key criterion. In a post on X, he said the trend was damaging the education system and foreclosing a brighter future for millions of students.
Das also shared a video of students crossing a mud-filled lane to reach school, calling it a 'very sad state of affairs'. Separately, CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke posted a video of students wading through a river in Maharashtra's Hingoli district. The CJP has announced a 2.5-km march from India Gate to Delhi Police Headquarters on September 5, demanding action on student safety and police excesses.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The CJP has no elected representation but has gained visibility through street protests and social media campaigns on student issues. Its September 5 march comes after the July agitation over NEET-UG irregularities, which saw clashes with police. Central university faculty appointments follow UGC norms, but allegations of political interference have surfaced before. The key test will be whether the government responds to these charges or dismisses them as partisan rhetoric.
