The title transliterates to “a dud bomb/cracker” (translates more correctly to damp squib) – which was what the Bangalore University’s new regulations on segregating men and women in the classroom, and dress code turned out to be.
After all the hype, hoopla and brouhaha over it, the “wise” men and women of the BU’s syndicate decided it wasnt so relevant after all. And there was a face saving claim of it only being a suggestion.
Maybe someone told them that education is their primary goal, and not moral policing?
