Cow Vigilantism

Cow Vigilantism  India is a country that is full of surprises. I mean to say the things that persist in India cannot be seen easily in other countries. Here, most of the people use to decide what is right and what is wrong by themselves. They themselves decide whom to punish and in what manner. They behave like they are above the law and in course of that some innocent people have to face whip of tyranny of people. Recent time has seen a new uprising in case of lynching of so- called wrongdoers. Some of them have also taken a toll of life of people. Many of them have potential to kindle riot also. One of the most common practice in present time is doing anything in the name of cow. These cow vigilantes pretend of chauvinism and from behind the veil they create an atmosphere of tension and unrest.

The Truth Shall Set You Free

Remember the name! apart from this bizarre tradition , you’ll find that the numbering and placement of these hostels make no sense whatsoever ( which is a recurring theme in this college). Hall 11 ( first years) Just like

A Necessary Evil

Sports are often referred to as the opium of the masses. It’s simple- Pick your preferred team on the basis of varied criteria, ranging from analysed and collated performance data all the way to the exact number of bodacious cheerleaders.  Now support this team to death and your 2-step program is complete. Unknown foreign players from distant unimaginable lands become household names. They’re praised in bundles for their success and insulted in truckloads for their failures. They’re boycotted, railed upon and in some cases even physically harmed in the process of proving your fandom. Clearly, a lot of people invest (Match fixers and bookies aside) a ton of emotions and expectations in sports. All this does is increase the pressure to perform. But the unfortunate beginning to our subject is that not everyone can perform under the pressure. They’re left with two basic alternatives. Retire a failed hero and spend your days reminding people why you look familiar. Or (the less dramatic
