Can a asp.net developer do without javascript and jquery?

hi suma,

Why you fearing from Jquery or javascript. It is so easy to use. Once you start work using Jquery. I assure you You will more enjoy your code. Really!

Suma, what kind of tools you are talking about for jQuery/java script in asp.net? 
I believe to make pages rather more responsive and attractive these scripts played well role.
