This Government is Against Dissent feat. Aishe Ghosh

In December 2019, the students of JNU - Jawaharlal Nehru University were attacked by a mob that broke onto the campus. The students were protesting in support of their demands, which included the scaling back of the fee hike that had just been implemented. More than 20 students were injured in the attacks - among them was Aishe Ghosh, scholar and student leader at JNU, President of the JNU Students' Union and a member of the Students' Federation of India, who had to be hospitalised because of her injuries, but instead of helping her, the Delhi police charged her with vandalism.This week, Aishe Ghosh joins Sidharth Bhatia on this episode of The Wire Talks, to talk about that incident in detail, what led to the unrest and the attacks on the students, the problems with the fee hikes not only at JNU but also at colleges across the board, what it seemed like the authorities wanted with the violence, how that backfired for them and instead became a unifying issue across the country, why the current government doesn't want diverse thinking and is actively taking action to suppress any form of dissent, and lots lots more.
