Lagree with the Univers ‘Grants Commission which two years ago remar that freedom is / vital for education and demecracy, and I personally feel, Sir, that on one plea or the other university autonomy and / academic freedom are being restric’ed rather than being extended as they must be, I do not think, Sir, that a / social purpose.or a social value can be IMPARTED in the teaching by a tcacher through the imposition of restrictions / on vis freedom of thinking.
