THE BEGNING OF THE END PART 2 :
( UNWANTED ELEMENTS )

Some time back while lecturing the students on behaviour and discplin the 'Director General' had said that he didn't want to see Amity becoming like Lucknow University and that he would not tolerate gangsters and hooligans entering and creating ruckus on the campus. Since then he has introduced various precautionary measures like forcing us to wear IDs (read dog collars) to keep us on a tight leash and prevent such incidents.
Obviously as we all know, none of them have worked. The 'devil may care' attitude prevails and the hooliganism persists. This is not because the people in question are smart enough to beat the system but because the administration is stupid enough to not realise that the enemy is within. If you refer back to 'the begining of the end part 1' you will realise that the blatant rule breaking had one more side effect. The dip in the standards (or rather the lack of it) for accepting students gave all sorts of unwanted elements access to the institute. Eventually these very students became the ones who went on to popularise eve-teasing, rowdism in the college and wreak havok in the system!
Ofcourse you all are wondering, "How did all this happen? Who is to blame for this?" Well, the actual list is very long and the names in it pretty prominent but in the center of all this chaos is just one man - Mr. Ohri! He alone authorised the change in procedures and accepted the admission of all students. Not only did he fail to contain the situation, he let it spin out of control!
Obviously on the outside he has to act as if he is working in the best interests of the students but everybody knows it's a facade. He knows about his inability to take decisive action and therefor he pretends to be unaware of the problem. For three years Director General has served only one purpose...his job is to brush the dirt under the rug!
