Strengthen tho Struggle for Students' Representation in JNU's Decision-Making Bodies!.

Unite For aSocially Sensitive and Democratic JNU!The ongoing agitation has forced the Administration to concede several of the demands on the Students' Charter: including those relating.

to enhanced library and sports facilities, as well as a deadline of 15 October for allotment of Lohit-Loni Hostel, and SR. TR, NR status for.

r freshars who are yet to get hostels. The VC has also committed to write a strong letter to the UGC demanding funds for enhancing the MCM.

amount. But despite this assurance, we must not relax our pressure on this issue until the MCM amount is actually enhanced..

However, the Administration has outright refused to concede the crucial demands of student representation in AC, Board of Studies andGrievance Redressal Mechanism, and this is the main issue on which the JNUSU is continuing on an indefinite hunger strike.Why Should Students Have Elected Representation in Decision-Making Bodies?The Academ1c Council Is the highestbody where policy-level decisions on all academic matters are taken. It is this body which decides.

what courses will be introduced, what rules will govern academics, and the fee structure ofvarious courses.Itis students who studythe courses and syllabi;Rules and regulations affect students most;And ofcourse, students are the ones who pay fees.The University, after all, exists mainly forstudents.Why, then, shouldn't students have asay in deciding matters likecourses, rules and fees, which affectthem most?.

Student Representation in AC is Necessary to Oppose Commercialization and SaffronizationAt a time when pnvat1zation and commercialization threatens higher education in India. Universities are always looking for ways to.

1mpose these polic1es on students. The AC 1s the place where proposals offee hikes, self-financed, highly priced courses and other.

forms of privatization will be introduced. Students' presence in the AC will ensure that the student community is not kept in the.

darkaboutthese proposals-so, the demand for student representation in AC etc... is in fact a demand forthe right to information..

But, more importantly, it is also a demand forthe rightto participation in decision-making.Student representatives can argue in.

the AC against fee hikes and commercialized courses, thus making sure that the University cannot take such anti-student steps overruling.

students' op1n1ons .

In the past few years, we saw the threat of saffronization, too, knock at JNU's doors. The AC and Board of Studies are the bodies whereany saffronized, oommunal or obscurantist Centre, or course of study will have to be passed in order to become apart of JNU curriculum. So,it is crucial thatstudent representatives voice theirvigilant resistance to any such saffronized courses in JNU's decision-making bodies. .

Student Representation Is A Must For Unbiased Grievance Redressal.

Teachers, supervisors etc... have power over students. As a result, students are at adisadvantage when faced with unfair markjng,.

victimization, or harassment by teachers. Grievance RedressaIcan be effective and unbiased only when students too participate in theprocess. So. student representation in the Grievance Redressat Committee is necessary if students' grievances are really to get justice..

JNU Act Provides for Student Representation in AC and 8oS,.

Why is the VC Scared of Restoring These Rights?.

.

The JNU Act of 1966, in Statutes 15 and 18, clearly provides for elected student representation in AC as well as Board of Studies.Elections to AC were held in 1974. However, these rights have been curtailed ever sincefhe Emergency. In 1976, the JNU Act was.

amended to exclude JNUSU representation in AC, but the provision for direct election of students to AC was retained, with the clause ofminimum CGPA added. No elections to AC have been held since, though the student movement has demanded the removal of the CGPA.

clause and membership of JNUSU in AC, in addition to restoration of elected student representation.Why is the VC bent on continuing this violation of the JNU Act? Why is he scared of re-implementing the Statutes of the JNU Act, and.

restoring students' .

democratic rights of participation in decision-making?Clearly, student representation in AC and other bodies, will make itdifficultto introduceanti-student policies likecommercialization and privatization, and to deny studentsjustice incases ofvictimization. This is whythe VC wants to avoid.

it at all costs. And this why we muststruggle to restore these rights, not justfor ourselves, butfor future generations of.

students in this University..

Stand by JNUSU's Initiatives and Struggles Towards Greater Social Inclusion, Democratization,and Students' Rights, Against Commercialisation and Administrative Assaults!!.

We live iP times, when the 'democratically' elected governments openly defend corporate profiteering in Manesar,Nandrgram. Koodamkulam, Jagatsinghpur and elsewhere, where brutal state repression is the response to people's .

'movements for their lands, lives and livelihoods. Operation Green Hunt, AFSPA and UAPA are justified in the name of.

national security'. UPA's mindless nuclear overdrive as well as its hyperactivity in handing over all natural resources-.

Forests, minerals, oil and natural gas, seeds, water, land -to corporate is posing a huge threat to the country.

Minority wJtch-hunting and branding of innocent Muslim youth as 'terrorists' .

.

becomes common place from Malegaonand Azarngarh to Darbhanga, as does racial profiling, threats and violence against people from the north-east..

Perpet~a· .rs of the dalit and Muslim massacre in Bathani Tala roam around scot free, while every day we witnessmounting mstances of casteist assaults on the lands, livelihood and dignity of dalits.Just as natural resources are handed over on a platter to corporate looters, laws are being framed for the corporate takeover of the education sector as well. On the one hand, universities are facing massive fund cuts and non-fulfilmentof faculty positions. On the other hand, MHRD is pushing for a set of raws that will promote rampantcommercialisation, do away with social justice, and provide immunity to private players from the laws of the land. It isin these times that the JNU students' .

movement and JNUSU has stood as a firm defender of students' and peoples'rights aga nst these multiple assaults. .

JNUSU's Initiatives and Struggles .

After a protracted legal and political struggle in JNU to defend the JNUSU constitution against the arbitrary impositionof the ~ ;''lQdoh committee recommendations, JNUSU elections were finally restored in March 2012. As per the 8th.

Oecernbe: 2011 verdict of the Supreme Court, JNUSU elections will be held next month. Therefore, the studentcommunity has to elect a new JNUSU election committee, so that JNUSU can handover charge and theprocess of conducting elections can be initiated. In keeping with the democratic traditions of JNU, JNUSU hascalled for General Body Meetings (GBMs) in all the schools, where Convenor reports will be tabled and debated on,and JNUSU election committee members will be elected. JNUSU has already put up the schedule for GBMs, andwe a'"'peal to the student community to participate in large numbers in all the GBMs. .

For JNUSU the students' union is not a seat of power; rather it is an instrument of struggle. JNUSU stands committedto broadenmg the horizons of the student movement of JNU -carrying forward struggles for social inclusion and social.

justice. against commercialization of higher education and for greater democratization. The current JNUSU had a very.

short tenure, having being elected only in March 2012. However, every single day of this tenure has been utilizedto carry forward and strengthen our struggles. .

Several initiatives were taken up for the very first time in JNU:.

> .

For the first time in JNU's history, the JNUSU took up the issue of the high weightage of viva marks as a.

major source of discrimination and exclusion in JNU's entrance exam. A massive struggle on this issuewas waged, which forced JNU'.

s Academic Council to set up a committee to look into our demands. Extensivedata analysis was done, Supreme Court and High court judgments to support our demands were procured andwidely circulated. In the committee, all machinations to dilute and deflect the issue were resisted. The vivacommittee was finally forced to accept JNUSU's analysis of systematic discrimination in the viva voce, and this.

report will now be circulated to all schools/centres..

> After JNUSU'.

s intervention, for the first time, JNU as an institution conduced mandatory gender sensitizationand orientation classes, whereby gender sensitizatiQn becomes the instrtutional responsibility of the university.

rather than being restricted to the campaigns of some concerned groups..

> .

A national platform for campus democracy and against the Lyngdoh recommendations was forged. Thisis an important step ahead in our tough struggle to defend the JNUSU constitution. and put the ~nti-Lyngdoh.

struggle on the agenda of campuses across the country..

> Tatkal services in railway reservation were operationalised in JNU, which removed a huge hurdle andinconvenience to the student community. .

> .

For the first time in JNU, systematic, institutionalized efforts are being taken up to make JNU barrier-free for.

physically handicapped students; readers' and escorts' allowance for PHNH students has been increasedto Rs 2000 per month. .

;. Financial Assistance: Following JNUSU's agitation, the administration has in principle agreed to increase the.

MCM amount, on the receipt of funds under the 1th plan. The administration was also forced to agree inprinciple to enhance the time period of the UGC non-net scholarship, to cover the entire period of research andhas incorporated the same in the 12th plan proposals sent to the UGC. .
