#IndiaWithPakistan or #IndiaWithKids

Disclaimer: This article can hurt (pseudo)secular sentiments and pro-Pakistan feelings of some persons. Proceed on your own discretion.

Just after the brutal killings of innocent kids of an army school of Peshawar by some suicidal psychopaths of Tahrik-E-Taliban (TTP), social media was instantaneously flooded (and is flooded till now) with messages of sympathy and support to the deceased children and their families. Needless to say, most of this overwhelming reaction came from the keyboards of Indians. Many ultra-(pseudo)secular senior journalist like Bachi Kakaria and Nikhil Wagle, who bake their breads by instigating and propagating hatred against RSS, also found sufficient material from this massacre to post some tweets linking these atrocious killings to Hindu organizations of India (Don’t stress your brain to find out any logic in their statements, the word ‘logic’ is not present in their dictionaries.)

Due to the enormous amount of empathy shown by Indians, #IndiaWithPak has become the most popular and trending hashtag of twitter. #IndiaWithPak is cute and dangerous at the same time. Cute, because the modern ISI – ‘Indian Secular Intelligentsia’ has again come out of its grave with the help of this hashtag. This hashtag serves them two purposes – First, it acts as a shield to avoid condemning the inhumane organizations of terrorists flourishing in Pakistan with the help of Pak government, army and the old ISI. Second, it acts as a weapon for them to expose the creation of their own mind - ‘Hindu Terrorism’ and ‘Hindu Taliban’ in India. And it does not stop here. They tell the world that the level of religious fanaticism and bigotry of ‘Hindu Taliban’ is far worse and more dangerous than the original Taliban. Their theories and arguments are outside the scope of my intellectual understanding. They probably think that RSS or any Hindu organization should now attack Army School, Patiala to maintain the ‘secular fabric’ of the world! But in spite of this kind of wicked ideology, I don’t see any real danger from the modern ISI, because they are already dead before they could turn into some real danger – thanks to the young generation of Indians who are no more falling prey to the ISI ideology.

The real dangerous thing is that we have yet again failed to distinguish between the ‘innocent Pakistani victims’ and the nation ‘Pakistan’. For the entire world, Pakistan is a synonym for ‘hell’! ‘Pakistan as a nation’ means the cosiest abode of most cruel humans – terrorists. ‘Pakistan’ means the primary patron of terrorists. Pakistan means the nation where the government, army, and intelligence agencies use terrorist whenever and wherever it suits them. Pakistan means the land where many of our most dangerous enemies are roaming freely. Pakistan means the streets where Hafiz Saeed – the master-mind of the cruellest terrorist attacks on India, more brutal and stronger in impact than the Peshawar attacks – 26/11, regularly organizes rallies and incites hatred against India. Pakistan means a nation having pitiless army which recently chopped off the head of one of our soldier, the only fault of his was that he was an Indian. Pakistan means a treacherous neighbour, who repeatedly violates ceasefire and wages wars against us without any reason at all. 

‘Pakistan as a nation’ is not worthy of this kind of support and sympathy. Yes, there are some Pakistani citizens who have nothing to do with all this. But this bunch of good people doesn’t represent entire ‘Pakistan’. Pakistan is a compound of India-haters, notorious terrorists, treasonous army, anti-India government, intelligent agencies ‘and’ some common people. Therefore, #IndiaWithPakistan is egregious, anti-national and shameful for a patriotic and humanitarian Indian. Why not think of something other, why not show your support to the deceased children and write ‘#IndiaWithKids’, and why not ‘#IndiaWithHumanity’? I don’t understand why Indians are afraid of condemning Taliban, terrorists and the Pakistan government. Why not ‘#ShameOnTaliban’, ‘#EndTerrorism’ or ‘#ShameOnPakGovernment’. 

There are tens of other hashtags, use them, but don’t use ‘#IndiaWithPakistan’, because when you write ‘With Pakistan’, you are indirectly supporting the same terrorists who murdered the innocent kids.   

Pakistan is an enemy of India.
India should not support Pakistan.

12 Students Suspended for Celebrating Birthday without GPL

 GPL in ISM Dhanbad    GPL in engineering
In a huge shock to the whole engineering fraternity, 12 students of ISM (Institute of Single Males) celebrated a birthday without GPL. The college authorities took immediate notice of this shocking act and suspended everyone involved in the birthday celebration.

This stunning event took place on the birthday of Padhaku Teja - the notorious 10 pointer of the college. It was around 11:50 pm when Lallan Jha2 – the GPL specialist of ISM who has successfully performed GPL of more than 400 students, set out on his daily birthday/GPL hunt. When Jha2 finally reached Maggu Wing, he heard some strange voice of “Happy birthday to you” coming from a room. Stimulated by this opportunity, Jha2 rushed to the room but he was left mind-blown when he peeked inside the room.

Instead of preparing for GPL, students were greeting Padhaku and were eagerly waiting to cut the cake. However, Jha2 took pity on the starved students and decided to wait outside the room. After 10-15 minutes, all the students came out of the room and started dancing to the tunes of Honey Singh’s Volume-1. Still seeing no signs of GPL, Jha2 completely lost his mind and went to call his friends.
Jha2 returned with his 5 friends. They all had leather belts and chappals in their hands. Padhaku saw them coming. Sensing their bad motives, he immediately ran from the place. Jha2 and his friends followed him but they couldn’t catch him. For the entire night, they searched every room of the hostel but remained unable to find Padhaku. Jha2 couldn’t endure this blow on his self-respect; next morning, he went to the dean office and narrated this inhumane act in detail.

“What! ....... How? ............ How could they ……?” was the reaction of the surprised dean. “At first I didn’t believe him, how can any student leave the golden chance of beating his friend?” the dean told our reporters, “but then Jha2 requested me to myself check Padhaku’s body”. After that, dean himself went to Padhaku’s room and minutely examined his body parts. Not finding any mark of GPL, the dean asked Jha2 the names of everyone present in Padhaku’s room that night. Dean first called the parents of the students and informed them about the in-disciplinary acts of their children. Then he issued an order suspending the students. “These students are a blot on the face of engineering, what message do they want to give to society?” said the dean.

Meanwhile, some of the suspended students told our reporters the reasons for abstaining from Padhaku’s GPL. “I had not eaten anything for the last 15 days, I was surviving on only RD's tea. Padhaku had threatened me not to give any piece from the birthday cake if I were to forcefully do his GPL,” said one of the suspended students while justifying his acts.

ISS: Everything You Want To Know

ISS: ISM Student Society

The ISM Student Society is a magnificent manifestation of the democratic spirits of ISM. Over the years, ISS has evolved as an institution having multi-dimensional roles. Nurturing and inspiring participatory democracy among students, ISS has been instrumental in ushering in various changes and developments in ISM. But sadly most students don't even have a basic clue about ISS. This article is an attempt to acquaint the students with the ISS, its functioning and the ISS elections.

Objective: ISS was established to bridge the gap between the students and the ISM administration. It discusses issues directly or indirectly effecting ISM and ISMites with the concerned authorities.

The ISS Body:
Electoral College:  It comprises of 40 members, all of whom are selected through interview by the concerned authorities. Details of members and selection process are given below. First year students are not included in the Electoral College.
Executive Committee: It consists of 7 members: The President, Vice President, General Secretary, Joint Secretary, Cultural Secretary, Sports Secretary and Secretary of Alumni Affairs. These 7 members must be among the members of the Electoral College. The President and the Vice President are selected from the B.Tech 4th year, and the rest are selected from the B.Tech 3rd year.

ISS Elections:
Electoral College: The 40 member team consists of following:-
(1) 3 Class Representatives.
(2) One representative from PG Students.
(3) One representative each from the Faculty Societies (ME, PE, Mechanical, MME, FME, Electronics, CSE, Electrical, ESE, Chemical, AGL, AGP, MS, Applied Math, Chemistry and Physics).
(4) One representative of the meritorious students from each year of B.Tech (total 3 students).
(5) One sportsman.
(6) One Hostel Perfect from each hostel.
(7) One Secretary from of the following societies: CSLS, Chayanika Sangh, Music Society, Cyber Society, Photographic Society, Yoga Society and NSS.
All members are selected after an interview by the concerned Presidents/Faculty Members/Wardens. GPA and extra-curricular activities form most important part of the selection criteria.

Executive Committee: Executive Committee is elected by (through voting) members of Electoral College from among its members.
Note: Any student who has appeared in any special examination or against whom any kind of disciplinary action has been taken, is not eligible to apply for the interview process of Electoral College


Functioning of ISS: First, a General Body Meeting (GBM) is organized to take feedback from students regarding their problems. After that, the issues raised in GBM are discussed in the ISS-Administration meeting. A GBM is held again to update students about the progress.

Suggestions:Currently there is no direct role of ISM students in the selection process. From time to time, demands have been raised to make the selection process more democratic. A large section of ISMites feels that instead of selecting members of ISS through an interview, students should themselves choose the members by election/voting.
