    I am a first year in Kgp. I have listened to both Mr. Shubham and Mr. Digvijay, and for me, Mr. Digvijay is my VP without a doubt. Hope he wins.

  2. Surya Pratap Mishra says:

    Kgp’s first taped SOP box – any external links available ?

  3. admin says:

    Sorry. The video files are really, really big. However, we are planning to edit the VP SOP video and shall upload it on Youtube. Please keep checking back here for updates.

  4. Anonymous says:

    What about the other SOPs ? Will they also be uploaded on YouTube ?

  5. Ankit says:

    After the SOP, Thank God I can proudly say that my judgement was the right one. Congratulations on the wonderful performance- Mr. Digvijay.

  6. ashish says:

    I am a MMM hall resident and today I witnessed the first SOP of my Kgp life. I could not understand the technicalities of “the working of the fest” but I could make out the right VP for me. I appreciate the student community of IIT Kharagpur for giving us this opportunity to make our choice rather than 15 days of a boring and redundant campaign.
    My vote will definitely go for Mr. Digvijay Gagneja.

  7. Rohit says:

    I believe that a the above comments about Digvijay being ‘great’ in the SOP are being spammed by Nehru hall people only, because as I could clearly see in the SOP, he was no match whatsoever for Mr Shubham Matah whatsoever.

  8. A.S. says:

    Spamming support for Digvijay Gagneja by Nehru will not help him win in anyway.I was in the SOP and I can say the fact that Mr. Digvijay does not stand even a slight chance against Mr.Shubham Matah and so can everyone else present there.

  9. Ra vi says:

    I request the admin to inspect the IPs of the above posted comments (as alleged from MMM) and I am sure these are stupid advertisement campaigns for Mr. Digvijay. The intensity of spamming clearly shows the desperate nature of Mr. Digvijay’s supporters. They have tasted defeat in yesterday’s SOPbox . I can say that with full confidence that Mr Shubham Matah is the ideal candidate for VP.

  10. Jai Matah Ki says:

    stupeed ppl… matah is from UP… aur UP wale sabki lete hain… yoyo

  11. HARSH says:

    I had never ever thought that scholars avenue would be favouring a lossing candidate(hope all had seen the SOP) ie gagneja and is doing the so called poltu in IIT lingo. all know that Shubham Matah has been been associated with ktj as volu then core team member and then an excellent head and proved his caliber but ur the just scholars avenue team just writes that he had been ASSOCIATED WITH KTJ is totally unjustified whereas u r elaborating even the small participation of gagneja is totally unjustified if u elaborate the achievements of Shubham Matah the page would need to be scrolled several times. This is a direct YELLOW JOURNALISM done by THE SCHOLARS AVENUE.
    YOOOOOO SHUBHAM MATAH OUR NEXT VP.

    @mr amit we all know that you are from nehru hall !!thats it

  13. anil says:

    i witnessed the soap yesterday and the way shubham was answering every question thrown at him, whether relevant or irrelevant,it cleary shows his cally….. his presentation and proposals were really great, specially the one on placements and other carrer oppurtunities….. i was awed by his witty and exact answers to every question…. he clearly knew anything and everything….. lets hope he wins the elections

  14. mritunjay says:

    i suggest 2 eveyone ……..first see the video of vp’s sop then decide about ur vital vote. Because ur wrong vote can affect not only u but the whole junta.
    i saw the yesterday’s SOP and surely i can say that mr. subham should be our next vp.
    all the best for both

  15. aniket says:

    this is really not fair, shubham was leading by 50 votes.. u cant keep janta in dark.. this should be discouraged.. every person has his right for opinion..

  16. rahul says:

    After the SOP, i can safely say that the deserving candidates are :

    VP : Digvijay Gagneja
    Soc-Cult : Abhimanyu Dikshit , Mandar Chandorkar
    Tech : Akshay Sharma, Deepak
    Sports : Angam, Ghanshyam

  17. ankit says:

    @ rahul
    do u have any idea that the persons u think r going to be the position holders were the the one who least performed in the SOP and u still they will win.
    I can safely say that u need a checkup… get it done soon

  18. madhy says:

    @ rahul
    its prety obvius u r in llr rk nehru ms panel,y shitin abt deir SOP,

  19. Harold says:

    My kgp friends …why fight over issues in this forum ?
    Who cares if Shubham Matah gave the better soap or that most of the IIT kgp junta want him as VP ? Who cares if Digvijay lies blatantly in his achievements list ….who cares if Digvijay is exceptionally arrogant whereas Matah is approachable and down to earth – these are no issues that will decide the election – as we all know it will finally come down to the dirtiest of politics and even the weaker candidate can be made to win provided you do enough chaos .

  20. RK screwed says:

    latest news : the candidature of RK’s tech nd soc-cult candidates is under the threat of being canceled. RK guys were found red handed by the president, distributing visiting cards of the candidates in MMM hall.
    insti mein itna sab hone ke baad bhi the dirty poltu people wont stop.

  21. Cweeter says:

    VISTING CARDS!

    and aah, Black Sunday already down the pile :)

  22. mathur says:

    cards of RP & Azad Hall candidates have also been found…all halls distribute cards and good-morning slips…its something like a code of honour among thieves…but alas, some people are quite selective in their vendetta against a particular hall i must say….even after holding the highest gymkhana student posts, they would go to any lengths to settle their grudges and ‘screw’ a particular hall

  23. ravii says:

    get your facts right @ mathur….u dont know anything. Cards of RP Hall and Azad Hall were not found. YOu can clarify from any random first year.But cards of LLR were found. Ask any first year. No good morning slips were distributed either. RK has gone to unimaginable lengths to win the elections and see what happened!!!…..RK screwed due to its own mistake

  24. Varun says:

    STRONGEST CANDIDATES DEBARRED…. SEEMS INTENTIONAL..

    ANYWAYS… BOTH THE GUYS WERE OSSOME.. DINT DESERVE THIS!

  25. Lakhu says:

    @ravii…..dude…he is right…..i knw much more than u……i am a resident of MMM….RP and Azad cards have been distributed in my wing…..moreover, goodmorning slips n cards r distributed every year….its nothing new….
    no doubt, RK was at fault technically but it suffered merely because some ppl carried out the worst kind of vendetta due to personal grudges….this sets such a bad precedent for the future….get ready for more candis getting debarred in the next elections…..and a real tiff between RP and RK

  26. Abhinav says:

    Can these fake profiles please shut their mouths and stop posting vague things on this forum.

    I hope every one here knows that nothing out of the blue has happened and Mr. Ravi I can show you emails of candidates saying vote for your candidate from your hall seniors from AZ and RP.

    So lets not discuss what extent etc because we all know that no one here has not tried his means to win this election.

    What has happened is unfortunate and every one knows why limelight was shed on the two candidates who were almost certain winners and not on someone else.Rest is all up to you to decide.

  27. Asutosh says:

    @Lakhu da

    Aap MMM ke ho..So nice..Jara room no. batana hum bi aaunga aapse funda lene ke liye…RP, RK ke baare me baahut pata hai aapko…

  28. Rajora says:

    @ all

    HAPPA of M.M.M had good liquor parties with r.p,azad,patel Happa’s since 2 months b4 the date of elections
    and moreover this time money transactions were also done

  29. Rajora says:

    the Happa of M.M.M was caught red handed while distributing Slips of AZAD,R.P,PATEL near polling booth while polling was going on in
    R.R Block of M.M.M

  30. Asutosh says:

    They weren’t slips, dude. He was giving out his marriage invitation cards. You should have seen properly. Anyways, about the liquor, it wasnt alcohol–it was just plain old appy…..
