A small story and Introduction to Fee hike issue :Protest on Thursday 06th June 2013

Dear friends,
There is a fee hike of 80% to 100% to IITM students. We have been trying to roll back this fee hike . Amidst our efforts, they have deducted the fee in our stipend.
This fee hike is not just a inflation induced one, rather our Government has decided to make IIT's a private institute. And Remember this is not just an issue of Rs 4000 hike.
soon every one has to pay Rs 2.5 lakhs per year. It is all about "trading higher education" and "Ensuring only rich can get education in IITs".
To know how and why ? and the necessity to protest against this fee hike
please Watch this 6 min Video in FACEBOOK:(CLICK) OR youtube: http://youtu.be/HqtTBGwzRns.
Not just present students, every one who have a dream to admit their kith and kin in IITs (past students, future students) also have the responsibility to question this atrocity.
A short Story ( you can skip this) :
Human Beings and frogs are the two creatures in nature who have tremendous power to adjust.
Put a frog in a vessel of water and start heating the water.
As the temperature of the water rises, the frog is able to adjust its body temperature accordingly.
The frog keeps on adjusting with increase in temperature.
Just when the water is about to reach boiling point, the frog is not able to adjust anymore.
At that point the frog decides to jump out. The frog tries to jump but is unable to do so, because it lost all its strength in adjusting with the water temperature.
Very soon the frog dies.
What killed the frog? Many of us would say the boiling water.
But the truth is what killed the frog was its own inability to decide when it had to jump out.
We all need to adjust with people and situations, but we need to be sure when we need to adjust and when we need to face.
There are times when we need to face the situation and take the appropriate action.
If we allow people to exploit us physically, emotionally or financially, they will continue to do so.
We have to decide when to jump. Let us jump while we still have the strength!
