the struggle by -calling an indefinite university striKe and taking the struggle to a higher level, with more.
assertive modes ofagitation. We demand that the JNUSU must respect this. .
Without adequate MCM many students in this university will not be able to continue their edu~tion. Theuniversity is run for and by the students, if they are not getting their rightful demands; let us stop the.
running of the university itself!The fight for double MCM is not merely a struggle for a certain sum of rupees but is.
integrally linked to our continued fight against the forces privatization, commercialization and fund cuts. It is integrallylinked to our vision of education where each and every student, irrespective of their financial background cancontinue their education.JNU is a relatively inexpensive place to pursue higher education.We pay minimal fees andhostel rent, students .from remotest parts and deprived backgrounds geti priority during admissions, throughmechanisms such as the-deprivatjon points;the powers that be have been forced to implement reservatio~s andthere is relatively greater freedom and safety for women students.NONE of these are gifts of the administration.Students have won these rights through bitter struggles with theadministration which has time and again tried to.
sabotage the democratic character of the university. They have tried to introduce self-financed courses, implementvarious agenda of privatization and commercialization, introduced retrogressive courses like astrology and Yogicscience, but students have fought and defeated all these react:onary plans of the administration several times..
The anti-student JNU administration is absolutely unperturbed by the ongoing indefinite hunger strike that.
is entering its 8th day as well as the falling health of students. But we don't expect anything else from.
administration which is the direct agent of ruling class in the campus. The ruling class right now has launched an all-.
out onslaught on the lives and livelihoods of the struggling people of the country. The exorbitant price rise of basiccommodities due to the policies of liberalization-privatization-globalization has had a spiralling effect on every aspectof our lives. The universities have not remained immune to this assault and, amongst other things, it reflects in the.
exorbitant rise in our mess bills.MCM. which is the basic requirement for students coming from economicallydeprived backgrounds. MUST be equivalent to the rising expenditure of the university..
The Union had already led two unsuccessful hunge~strikes in the past one year which, am.on·g other issues, ..
had demanded double MCM. But in the past one year it has not been abje to clinch this extremely important.
issue. This year too, the Union admitted in an all-organization meeHng that they knew from July that administration.
is going to, rather charitably,.increase the MCM by a meagre 500 rupees. But shamefully, they neither informed nor.
mobilized the students against the same. In repeated all-oraanization meetings, DSU has proposed thrice that the.
JNUSU should Lntensify the struggle by calling for an indefinite university strike-and taking the struggle to a higher.
level. But the JNUSU has consistently remainedon spurious grounds reluctant to do so and intensify the struggle toa higher level. One must remember that these are the same forces who had called an indefinite university strike to.
bring the anti-student Lvngdoh in the campus last year. But today they squarely refuse to call for an indefinite.
university strike to fight the crucial demand for doubling MCM.This only shows the lack of resoluteness of the.
JNUSU leadership to fKlht this crucial demand. .
