When George Orwell coined the word "Doublespeak" to be used instead of lie, I just wondered was it done to give more respectability to the majority of the people of the world who indulge in doublepeak. I got the answer today in the meeting of the faculty where some big issue was discussed. The discussion brought to open the rivalry between the two associations. Now do we really need two or more associations in the college, is a big question. I think it is like having a watch dog in your house that will help you secure the house. I think only one watch dog worth the salt is enough to safeguard the house than having so many little Pamerians who would just be performing the ornamental function than the job required of them. Now what is the relation between Associations and doublespeak? In fact it was during my first discussions with the administration that I was told point blank that the new House Allotment rules were framed in consultation as well as per the suggestions of the various Associations. But today the Administration said that there were not any Associations in the Institute that were recognised by the Governing Body so the question of settling the claims for the genuine Association does not arise. I was suddenly interested and was all ears to see the concept "doublespeak" at work. It is to speak what suits the occasion whether that is true or false. Losing all interest in the burning topic of discussion, I was listening to volte-face of the Administration. I am happy that I finally saw the newly coined word of English Language at work. A concept changed into a reality. A "Doublespeak" at work!
