Dear All

 

I appreciate all the members in making those important decisions.

I personally congratulate Mohan for taking the responsible position esply at the time of crisis.

I hope things would take a better shape in the hands of our new president. I wish him all the very best.

The title of the seminar sounds very  well,but we shud plan well in advance and give enuf time for the people to prepare and present.

 

If it is proved that Registrar without a proper notification had appointed those two employess we should seriosly condemn it.So, first we should make sure by filing RTI or talking to some officials to knw exact news and then we can go ahead with it.

Dear Mohan

 Any hw we have enuf time, so we can think of those people who have been involved in the subaltern movement intellectually and activism.

[DABMSA]

Dear Friends,

Happy with the new development in the EC. I was thinking that we could invite Arunthathi roy on Last week of March. for the same programme. We can also focus on inviting a muslim activist in particular.

There is a play on Gandhi and Ambedkar (poona pact). The play is in Hindi and was awarded this year. This programme got a good response in JNU. They were also suggesting the same. The troop is coming to Hyderabad on end of march. They will be hear from 31st March to April 5th.

National convention:

This convention can be can be also thought abt. Since Mohan will be leaving end of march we could play before he leaves. 

Think of these two programmes and respond at the earliest. We can also call an EC meeting to discuss over the same. 

Constitution should be amended very soon.

Regards.

Dear Ravi

First of all it is very confusing when you use DABMSA mail id for your personal opinions.  It is better to use your own mail id for more clarity.

Secondly, Mohan put forward the idea of the seminar.  The practical problem with seminar is that, and this was decided in the meeting, that we will first invite Gaddar, and then depending on his date we will inform the other speakers, because the other speakers are not as busy as Gaddar.  Arundhati Roy is another star figure and it will add practical problems to scheduling the talk properly.  Right now, Gaddar is more important for this programme.  May be we can call Arundhati Roy for a different programme altogether.

The play is a good idea.  Hindi is a problem, but that is ok, half the population on our campus is already Hindi speaking, and the half of the other half can understand that language.

We don't have to think about too many programmes now.  Let us conduct this one seminar well, and that is enough of planning for now.  Mohan will leave in April and my personal opinion is that the Constitution should be adopted before that, so that we will have a completely new EC around the time Mohan leaves. 

If the Constitution takes further than April, the scene is going to be bad.  I have heard from Laxman that he is resigning, and I have heard from someone else that Sandeep Pal is also resigning.  I am also planning to resign by March end, may be after the seminar.  It will not look good for the organization if members are resigning one by one.  So please put a date for the new constitution and then whoever wants to go can go and a new EC can come in place.

Thanks

Hi

Shafeeq

I dont think anything like personal message i sent. The message was sent on DABMSA activities and not on any personal thing. I do understand the harsh way you have written the mail. The same was going on my mind for some time too. Since you and Aby asked me to resign from the post of General Secretary. 

Here i want to convey a message that i am resigning from DABMSA, as you said for the sake of DABMSA's growth.

Wish you all the best. 

With Regards

Dear Ravi

I did not mean to be harsh, and I am sorry if it has come across so.  

And, I don't have a Google id.

And my appeal to all those who wish to resign is that let us all please work together for some more time, and let the constitution gets accepted and then we can go for a new body.

Thanks, and sorry again

dear friends,

what is this?

a group resignation and all?

everybody who are working in the organisation have the responsibility to give it in the safe hands when they leave from the organisation.

and dont think that they only have responsibilities when thy are in the official posts. nobody, especially the juniors in the DABMSA are not eagerly waiting for the resignation of anyone in the organisation, we need some time to take up things and study and even if  you people wants to handover the positions we need your help to organize things. the things came about the mail id and all is very simple silly stuffs.

hello bros..

i dnt knw what is happening here anyway, i can say that there was a proposal at the time of meeting n its not final.. we can still think about it.. n i dnt have any prob calling a roy for this meeting. about that play, i think we can organize it thought its a hindi play. its not compulsory that u can do when im here u can also make it successful without me. we have to also think about the actors point of view. 

finally,  i want to say something that th e c meeting had decided to submit a memorandum questing the administration inequalities towards the ad-hoc jobs and the other employees future. but we dnt knw wher this letter has disappeared, n we also decided the time at that time for meeting the officials but noone has turned up. see, my friends, dabmsa is not only for the seminars or discussion for the dabmsa leader calling from the outside/inside intellectuals, it also has to think mainly about the students probs(what about grade system,we totally forgot about it) and the present issue about the employees. cant we go n fight for this whereas the outsiders r coming fighting/questing to the officials? in my opinion that, dabmsa has not taken any issue in time n responded during this year.  n i have been telling the people about it, but none of them has responded, or there wer saying he/she is busy with their work. so they can easily tell others to take up it. bros, if we cant do it then leave the organisation.if we cant respond it on time then there is no use of it. n we got a letter from the employees as well n its been a week already. so what r we doing thinking about our future plans.

hi Mohan,
regarding grade v spoke to vc and it got resolved and we got the
office order the next day itself. i thought you might had heard about
it. anyway it is true that we are silent in many things happening
inside the campus, we should start questioning the authorities when
they are wrong and should go hand in hand with who can work with us
for general cause. you are absolutely true
