I invite you to read this article: Mammoth crisis threatens India’s IITs and IIMs | Mint (ampproject.org)
There you go :)!
We raised this flag way back in 2009 when the IIT Faculty Federation protested for salary hikes. The then Minister HRD, the deeply obnoxious Kapil Sibal (who generally fights cases only for criminals because the innocent can't afford him), responded by coming on TV and humiliating us for "being greedy" and not having enough of a "spirit of renunciation" (Kapil Sibal! Imagine that!). Some IIT directors and "wanna be directors" of course exhibited their usual sycophancy and stalled their own colleagues instead of pointing out that there indeed is a serious economic lacuna in our faculty hiring.
We were "decent" as usual and arrived at a "compromise".
Now deal with it. Mr. Kapal Bharati 😏.
