TMC goons in Burdwan University the other day. Congress goons in Kanpur yesterday, pelting stones and eggs at Subramanian Swamy’s car. As reprehensible, as worthy of condemnation, as the BJP’s various groupings of goons creating mayhem in various trouble spots.

This is why I believe — and keep repeating — that the students of JNU and of the other universities that have come out in support of Kanhaiya Kumar and Rohit Vemula should keep politicians of all stripes at a distance.
