New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has said that the University Grants Commission\u2019s draft regulations on the appointment of teachers and academic staff in universities and colleges is an attempt to push the agenda of the RSS that aimed to achieve its idea of imposing “one history, one tradition, one language” on the country.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, speaking at a protest against the draft UGC regulations organised by the DMK [Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam] in New Delhi, the opposition leader in the Lok Sabha said the RSS aim was the eradication of all other histories, cultures and traditions of the country.<\/p>\n
“That is its starting point and that is what it wants to achieve. It attacks the Constitution because it wants to achieve one idea which is its idea \u2014 one history, one tradition, one language \u2014 on this country,” he said. “This attempt that it is doing with the education system of different states is just another attempt to push its agenda,” Gandhi said.<\/p>\n
“We have to respect all the languages, all the cultures, all the traditions, all the histories and we have to understand where they are coming from,” he said.<\/p>\n
The Tamil people have their history, language, traditions, and they have had their struggles, he said. “Doing this is an insult to the Tamil people and also to all other states where the RSS is trying to impose its hegemony,” he said of the UGC’s draft regulations.<\/p>\n
Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav also hit out at the BJP-RSS, stating that they wanted to take over all the power of state governments.<\/p>\n
“They want to make politicians servants of industrialists. We can never support the new education policy\u2026 I am against the NEP (National Education Policy). I am against the BJP,” he said.<\/p>\n
The Congress has termed the draft UGC regulations on the appointment of teachers and academic staff in universities and colleges “draconian and anti-Constitution”, and demanded that those be immediately withdrawn. Hitting out at the Modi govt over the draft regulations, the Congress said the justification that the rules had been updated for compliance with NEP, 2020, did not withstand scrutiny and must be rolled back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
