Disha Students’ Organization statement on the untimely death of HCU student Mayukh Kundu!
Yet another life snuffed out by the senseless mob justice of fascist goons!![]()
On 19 May 2026, Mayukh Kundu, a first-year MA Financial Economics student at the University of Hyderabad, was found dead in Buffalo Lake. A student who came to university with dreams of education, dignity, and a better future lost his life under deeply disturbing circumstances.![]()
The events leading up to his death are extremely alarming. On the night of 17 May, a mob consisting of ABVP-affiliated students and members of the ABVP-led Students’ Union gathered outside F-Hostel, accusing Mayukh of laptop theft. Instead of allowing any institutional or legal process to take its course, they took to the classic fascist tactic of “mob justice.”![]()
The gathering soon turned violent and disorderly. Security personnel who tried to intervene were threatened and abused. A Dalit Assistant Security Officer was publicly humiliated with slurs when he tried to intervene and maintain peace. Mayukh was subjected to severe humiliation, harrassment and torture. Reports also indicate that the mob later took him into a room that night, assaulted him and forced him to confess to the theft. Soon after, Mayukh was found dead in the Buffalo lake. ![]()
What happened to Mayukh is not an isolated incident, it is a most severe instance of a rising trend in HCU and other campuses in the country. It is the rise of organised hooliganism, mob vigilantism and unbridled violence by fascist ABVP forces. In HCU itself, a few days before this students were assaulted by ABVP goons for a play they were putting up. In the past few months, it has attacked students in Azim Premji University, Allahabad University, JNU, Sagar University, HCU and other places. Over the past several years, ABVP has repeatedly committed such acts of violence, intimidation, and disruption — attacking students, targeting dissenters, obstructing academic and cultural programmes, and assaulting student representatives.![]()
This rising hooliganism is sustained through the complete impunity it gets from the administrations and law enforcement bodies. In this case as well, the University administration failed to take any substantial action. Its vague notification issued on 18 May acknowledged ongoing incidents involving intimidation, abusive behaviour, obstruction of officials, intoxication, and indiscipline. However, it deliberately avoided naming those responsible or taking any concerted action. This is a wilful act that intends to protect the culprits while putting the common students at risk, and it is becoming a widespread trend. No culprit is brought to justice, and the fascist infiltration of university administrations, police forces, judiciary and media create the perfect ecosystem for this monster to breed. ![]()
The majority of this country’s youth are kept outside the gates of higher education through systemic denial of opportunity, and the handful that are able to enter are faced with oppression, economic hardship, shrinking democratic space, and falling quality of education. While the governments and university administrations continue implementing anti-student policies, fascist footsoldiers of the ABVP spread hatred, bigotry, and violence to silence dissent, divide the students, and establish a reign of terror. When a fascist organisation’s student wing commits such mob violence, when administrations and governments fail to take any meaningful action, it is clear to us what is the real worth of a student’s life in this country. ![]()
We must also clearly understand the politics of instant mob justice practised proudly not only by the likes of ABVP and other lumpen organisations of the Sangh Parivar but also by the police administration in BJP-ruled states like UP where police encounters are brandished as a symbol of strong and efficient governance. This practice of serving instant mob justice reduces crime to an individual, thereby letting the entire administration, government and the exploitative capitalist system out of the docks. University Administrations, governments, Police and other bodies of the state are thus absolved of any responsibility and accountability. It aims to explain different acts of crime as purely separate and autonomous incidents carried out by some “evil” individuals and therefore the systemic root causes are obsfucated and the possibility of any long-term, systemic change is stymied. Needless to say, in the name of teaching lessons to the “evil” criminals, the fascist organisations and police administration working at the behest of a fascist party targets the Muslims, Dalits, tribals, women, workers and all those communities whom fascist ideology has identified as the “enemy”. Therefore, as students who want safer and crime-free campuses, we must see through the politics of instant mob justice, and instead of instant gratification must demand responsibility and accountability from the university administrations, governments and the system as a whole. ![]()
Disha Students’ Organization strongly condemns the mob justice imposed by fascist ABVP and the members of HCU Students’ Union. We condemn the administration’s intentional and persistent inaction. We stand with the family and friends of Mayukh, along with the millions of common students of this country who are fighting for democratic, safe, vibrant campuses, for dignity and a better life, for a better society. ![]()

On the recent statement by the Chief Justice of India...![]()
“There are youngsters like cockroaches, who don't get any employment and don't have any place in the profession. Some of them become media, some of them become social media, some of them become RTI activists, some of them become other activists, and they start attacking everyone.” - Chief Justice of India, Surya Kant![]()
This bizarre and insensitive comment made by the Chief Justice of India, Surya Kant on 15 May is unfortunately a telling example of the condition of India’s judiciary today. An institute whose fundamental duty it is to ensure a democratic environment, to protect the right to freedom of speech of individuals, to keep the ministers, bureaucrats, politicians accountable to the public, to serve and protect the citizens of India, now has its topmost office-bearer calling ordinary youth parasites simply for exercising their democratic rights.![]()
What exactly is the problem the CJI has with youngsters who “become media…become social media”? Is it that they are holding the government accountable? Is it that they are providing an alternative to the sold-out, pro-state, pro-BJP corporate mainstream media? Is it because they challenge the propaganda machinery and fake news factory that is the Godi media? We know that the fascist BJP government has unleashed an unprecedented attack on independent media and journalists since coming to power, but now it appears as though the CJI shares their sentiments!![]()
Surprisingly, the CJI also has strong distaste for RTI activists. What have they done to be likened to insects? Is it wrong to demand accountability from the government? Justice-loving citizens sacrifice their time and energy to ensure that the public stays aware, that the government is held answerable and that there is no abuse of power. Once again, it is understandable that the corrupt ministers and bureaucrats treat the RTI as a thorn in their side, and are doing everything in their power to amend and dilute the RTI and persecute and harass RTI activists.![]()
But it is shocking that the CJI harbours such antagonism towards them! In fact, is it not the duty of the judiciary, its apex body, and its topmost office-bearer to do precisely this task of keeping the executive powers in check? Is the judiciary abandoning this task and condemning those civilians who are trying to do the same?![]()
Finally, activists are also not spared from this vicious attack. Those who speak up for the rights of the students, youth, common toiling masses of this country, those who give their time and effort for the upliftment of the larger society, are also cockroaches for the CJI. And all of these species of "cockroaches” according to the CJI come from the genus of unemployed youth!![]()
It is an extremely insensitive move to insult youth who are unemployed in the same week as the cancellation of NEET-UG, an exam which 22 lakh “unemployed youth” gave months of their life to prepare for, only for a paper leak and the authorities’ inability to prevent it, to destroy their dreams. In a country where more than 89 known cases of paper leaks of major exams in just the last 12 years, in a country where government jobs are shrinking or lying vacant in the thousands, in a country where private firms are conducting lay-offs of thousands as and when they please, who is to be blamed for rampant unemployment?![]()
In a country where the quality of public education is a horror, where education and employability are decided based on how much wealth one has, who is to be blamed for unemployment? The BJP’s promise of generating 2 crore jobs a year has disappeared into thin air, and instead, the attack on common working masses has intensified in the form the four new labour codes, rising inflation, falling real wages, retrenchments, rising cost of education etc.![]()
When faced with such adverse situations, is it not natural that one will question the reasons for it? Is it not justified that the disillusioned youth of this country raise their voice against the systemic injustice they face? And is it so unacceptable that youth are sensitive enough to speak against social oppression and exploitation in society? If these are qualifications to become a “cockroach” in the eyes of the CJI, what exactly does he feel about our martyrs like Bhagat Singh, Chandrashekar Azad, Sukhdev, Rajguru, Ganesh Shankar Vidyarthi and the thousands of “unemployed youth” who were also activists, independent journalists, freedom fighters?![]()
This comment by the CJI reveals much more about his position and the state of today’s judiciary than it does about the youth of this country. It speaks volumes about the fascist infiltration of all arms of the state machinery, including the judiciary. When the Chief Justice of India makes comments that directly undermine our right to freedom of speech and our right to dissent, we must think about whom the judiciary is really working for today.
Against the paper leak of NEET UG and incompetency of NTA to conduct a fair exam, a protest was organised at Jantar Mantar. Disha Students' Organization with other progressive organisations participated in the protest. ![]()
First we should remember that NTA is an autonomous and self-sustained foundation which outsources its examination process (from printing to examination management) to private entities. This is not the first time NTA has shown its inability to conduct a fair exam. Two years back in 2024, both NEET and UGC NET had paper leaks and exams were reconducted.
More than 22 lakhs students appeared in NEET UG 2026. This might be common for the government and NTA to cancel an examination and order it to be reconducted because of their own fault. But every time common students and their future gets affected, they have prepared for several years for these examinations in the hope that they will clear the exam and become a doctor and serve the country. After the paper leak, CBI probe will conduct an “investigation” where some low ranking official and a few students will get arrested instead of putting the entire examination system in the dock whose commercialisation and privitisation is the main reason behind the recurrent paper leaks. We believe that these paper leaks are not done by common students and cannot happen without the involvement of higher officials, politicians, and private entities.![]()
We stand firmly in solidarity with the common students and demand:
1. The NTA be dissolved immediately.
2.The Education Minister, Mr. Dharmendra Pradhan, must resign immediately.
3. The paper leak of NEET 2026 must be investigated immediately, and all those responsible, including officials, private contractors, and political protectors, must be identified and punished.
4. Private outsourcing of examination processes must be put to an end.
5. Papers should be printed only through government presses instead of private presses
6. Students impacted by irregularities and scams in examinations should be properly compensated after an assessment of the losses they have suffered.
