'RE TIONS' OR SELLING OUT.

OF JNUSU·CONSTITUTION.

.

20th September 2011 UG~M gave a resounding mandate rejectingLyngdoh in toto in any form. But according to ABVP, AISA, AISF, NUSI, SFIthat .UGBM was unconstitutional because it doesn't 'suit' their 'agenda' of bringing Lyngdoh. DemeaningJNUSU Constitution and students' community they walked off the UGBM. If they had the guts, they should.

have put their resolution after the debate and seek the mandate of the student community. But instead, theychose to run away as they knew the mood of the student community was to continue the UGBM. Rnally, theEC continued the UGBM as per the JNUSU Constitution..

Betraying student community has been the history of these renegades, the Lyngdoh supporters. It isnoteworthy that for some of these orga~izations Lyngdoh committee recommendations are 'progressive' . Itwould be a historical mistake to expect from these organizations, apologists of parliamentary democracy, to.

uphold JNUSU Constitution and fight against Lyngdoh. They cannot, as all these organizations are contesting.

elections under Lyngdoh in other universities..

True to their politics, bypassing the mandate of the last UGBM these organizations went ahead fornegotiations with Gopal Subramaniam and now claiming to have brought 'relaxations'. They are ready to.

conduct elections under these 'relaxations'. These much hyped relaxations are nothing but mere eyewash.

and a tool to spread confusion. It is an open invitation to the State (administration) to interfere in our campus,in our student union. It is a death warrant for the progressive student movement..

More so it is very clear that any relaxation calls for amendment in JNUSU Constitution, even if it is for.

an interim period. JNUSU Constitution gives full autonomy to the Election Committee, but if elections are heldwith these so called relaxations, the EC will not have that autonomy. Not only that but also there will be aGrievance Cell constituting administration, faculty and student.JNUSU Constitution does not have any clause that debar any student from contesting elections butelections under these 'relaxations' for the interim period definitely debar students on many grounds --'merit',age... Not only that no organization will be able to invite speakers from outside campus for its publicmeetings. Even the agenda of the public meetings must not be 'anti national'. Here it is noteworthy that forState people's movement which is waging war against casteism, communalism, patriarchy and other forms of.

repression is 'anti-national'. The people's struggle for their Jai-Jangal-,Zameen is 'anti-national', the fight of.

self determination of different nationalities is 'anti-natjonal' for the State. And if Lyngdoh comes, in the nameof curbing these 'anti-national' the voice of struggle, the voice of dissent, the voice of solidarity will berepressed. .

In this background, today's UGBM necessarily should have been an E-UGBM. This question wasraised within the Joint Struggle Committee, but it was bypassed and the call for an ordinary UGBM wasgiven. Since it was clear to these organizations that any interim elections under Lyngdoh will call foramendment in JNUSU Constitution, they are spreading confusion and hiding this fact from student.

community. They know that if students are made aware of this fact of tampering the JNUSU Constitution,they will vote against it. We appeal to the student community to be vigilant during the UGBM as theseorganizations in the leadership of AISA-SFI will try to sabotage the JNUSU Constitution. They will create.

confusions, rumors. We appeal all the progressive students to stand against any resolution that calls forelections under relaxation..

SFR declares that it will boycott any election held in Lyngdoh (fully or partiaJiy). We want elections, but.

under JNUSU Constitution. .

For us JNUSU is a site of struggle unlike parliamentary elections. And any.

deviations, be it in the form of 'relaxations' or elections under 'Joint Struggle Committee' is to undermine .ourUnion. It will be a betrayal with the revolutionary struggles we have led under the banner of JNUSU. It will bebetrayal with the martyrdom of Com. Nabeen Babu and Chanrdrashekhar. Reject Lyngdoh in toto, reject anypuppet and proxy union. Stand for JNUSU. Reclaim our union. Uphold JNUSU Constitution.SFR'S RESOLUTION FOR TODAY'S UGBM"This house upholds the 20th September 2011 UGBM mandate of rejecting Lyngdoh in toto andrejects any interim election under Lyngdoh with so called relaxations and appeals to initiate theprocess of JNUSU Elections under JNUSU Constitution" .
