Chandigarh, November 11, 2024: Parminder Singh Dhindsa, former Finance Minister of Punjab, participated in "Punjab University Bachao Morcha".
He said that this conspiracy of centralization of Punjab University is part of the whole act of secession because of the BJP. By centralizing Punjab University, they want to make it a branch of the Union so that they can exercise their will in the education sector of Punjab like changing syllabi, distorting history, etc.
Therefore, the Punjab government is also absolutely responsible and the Punjab government should strongly oppose this policy of the Centre. Because the central government can take a decision only when the Punjab government agrees with that decision.
He praised the "Punjab University Bachao Morche" and the youth and encouraged them that the youth are fighting for their rights.
On November 11, 2024, Parminder Singh Dhindsa, the former Finance Minister of Punjab, participated in the "Panjab University Bachao Morcha". He stated that the centralization of Panjab University is part of a broader conspiracy for saffronization, as the BJP seeks to centralize the university and turn it into a branch of the RSS. This would allow them to impose their ideological agenda on Punjab's educational sector, including changing syllabi and distorting history.
He further emphasized that the Punjab government is equally accountable and must strongly oppose this policy of the central government. The central government can only make decisions if the Punjab government agrees to them.
He praised and encouraged the "Panjab University Bachao Morcha" and the youth for their efforts, as they are fighting to protect their rights.
