The government move to bring in a law to protect campus politics has its own merits and demerits. While the minister mentioned that the proposed legislation will have clauses to dissociate major political parties from campus politics, which is welcome, the statement of the young gen mla mr Shari parampil that if politics is banned we would be creating an insensitive generation is a bit absurd. I do not understand why the party based organisations are needed for reacting to any issue. In the 'highly literate' state, the proliferation of political parties and their urge to make their presence in all fields ranging from headload workers to uniformed forces is creating a very dangerous situation in the state. I am at a loss to understand why such organisations should be formed on a party basis. Even though the service rules of the government employees stipulate that no official shall be engaged in political activities, it is a well known and accepted fact that there are pro ldf and pro udf organisations of employees. Unless this is curbed any amount of legislation will not have any effect.
It is high time that the younger generation leaders thought of the imminent danger in such politicisation of all fields and took a firm stand. Let the students concentrate on their studies and choose the political line once they come out of the campus.
