View attachment 88958

An Indian professor was forced to issue a public apology by kneeling down for praising Prime Minister Imran Khan on social media.

According to reports, civil engineering professor of Karnataka college Sandeep Wathar had praised PM Imran in a Facebook post for his continuous peacemaking motions while also accusing the Indian government of BJP for escalating the tensions between the two countries for their personal electoral gains.


India’s right-wing student organization ABVP activists after a demonstration had forced the professor to publically apologize by kneeling down and folding his hands while also clamoring for him to give his resignation.

Despite the professor not filing a complaint against the activists, the members had been prompting the police to register a suo moto complaint against him.

Welcome to Modi's India

 

[big_gamer007]

[MENTION=21699]Pakpak[/MENTION] This is the reason for my post in the other thread..

 

[Bewal Express]

So this is what Ind has become under Modi's tutelage.

 

[Fahdi]

To see such scenes in a country which holds professors and academics in such high regard is a sad affair.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

So this is what Ind has become under Modi's tutelage.

They feed these activists to make more crime, take law in their hands, kill, Lynch, murder, rape, burglary etc etc and get away with any crime they do, well they can even go out protest to save child rapists. Shameless

 

[Muhammad10]

Hindustan going the North Korea way...

 

[Extra_Cover]

This is sad to see. Another sad video below for praising Imran. Btw this is so much similar to that infamous interview "so you are saying..."

 

[Madplayer]

My heart weeps for the professor. Even if you dont agree with him, this is no way to treat somebody who is a guru to so many people. He has been humiliated.

 

[a_tahir]

So much for being a free speech state.

 

[PakLFC]

Who is he kneeling down to? Soon India will have a big Modi statue.

 

[rhony]

Why kneel down like a coward? He should stand up to his own views no matter what. What kind of a teacher is he in Gandhi's land

Shah Faesal , I'm a follower from now onward. He is a good leader in making. This guy is special.

 

[Slim]

Not sure if India or North Korea.

 

[Madplayer]

He is a Kashmiri. He secured the 1st rank in the most prestegious Indian civil services exam (IAS) and then quit the job because of differences with the Indian state.

 

[Bhaijaan]

BJP's student wing ABVP is pulling similar tantrums against some dean in Delhi university also.

What a bunch of dirty rats these fascists.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Student's politics should be banned across India.

 

[rhony]

It is Godse's land now. Gandhi has been assassinated for the second time.

This is strange. I heard the liberal machine in India is as powerful as BJP. Why aren't they saying anything?

 

[Akki malhotra]

Hindus are not safe in India. If only these poor could migrate to Pakistan in 1947.

Anyways problem in India is not religion. It's nationalism. Any person of any religion if doesn't put India above everything, I. E includes religion as well, then this may happen to them.
I dnt support this. Although there are many people who has said much worse about India inside India and nothing has happened to them. It depends. But it's bit dangerous to sound like anti national in India these days it seems.

 

[rhony]

Huh. Even stranger then. I saw the uproar during Afzal guru saga. This guy seems genuine and a gem. Why doesn't he have support from the liberals?

 

[Madplayer]

I dont know why he doesnt have support from liberals or anyone else. Just know that he is emerging as a sane voice. But he has clearly said that as of now he doesnt have it in him to sacrifice as much as the seperatists. At least he was honest about it.

That's because he's smart. He needs to join main stream politics in J&k. He can do much more good than separatists.

With little more support, he can be Nelson Mandela of Kashmir. Both countries should support him.

 

[Madplayer]

Yes he is smart. And i think he will be a big leader in the coming years. He is inspired by Imran i think. Taking cue from Imran, he is also trying to crowd fund his mission lol

 

[rhony]

Not a bad leader to follow in light of what we've seen in the last few days. Good luck to him. I love young, smart, genuine leaders fighting for a cause non violently. Most of the world does. They are the ones who change the world.

Seems a very sensible fellow.

 

[CricketCartoons]

I don't believe he secured highest marks in such a tough exam on merit. The Indian State gave him 1st rank but see how he repaid their generosity. It will be dangerous if he joins politics and his voice gets heard. People who leave a comfortable life because they believe in something are the most dangerous.

 

[Junaid_ahmed]

Horrible, I have had some high regards for south peoples but they knell down the entire India.
I am sure some of them would have begging on social media for Abhinandan's return just to show how sensitive they are in humanity.

 

[Pak Warrior]

This is sad, the teacher should have the right to voice his opinion in the worlds biggest De-Mock-racy, the students are wrong here.

 

[UmarMalik]

Ive come to realize we must stop arguing with Indians. I like to argue at times to get my point across, to learn more about their viewpoints and to enhance my knowledge of the world from someone else’s perspective. But, Ive come to realize that most Hindus only care about people who act like a hindu and support everything that’s said by their leader. To them, everyone else is an animal and do not deserve to speak their own voice.

My thoughts exactly brother. I think we should all focus on Pakistan and doing everything to make it a better country. If india wants to go to the extreme right wing ideology I say we let them. They should look at our history and see what happened when we gave these religious nutjobs power.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

People who think that BJP is all about development and think they are the best bet for India...should read these news types.

When you vote for BJP, they ALSO come with a mob of violent crazy Hindutva junkies.

Harassing & humiliating people.

Absolutely pathetic.

Wish India had a 3rd party which could keep Congress and BJP on its toes.

I am shocked to hear such things are happening in India.

 

[Brilliance]

RIP India !

 

[princeuk]

Talk about having freedom of choice and freedom to think for yourself, clearly not applicable here.

 

[CricketCartoons]

RIP India !

yes RIP to India, and welcome to Hindustan. The oppressed hindus are finally striking back at the pseudo intellectual academics and convent educated opinion makers. Anyone who questions the Supreme Leader, Mard-e-Haq, Rustom-e-Hind, Shri Narender Modi JI Ghazi is a traitor and an anti national and is not worthy to live in this holyland and deserves to be humiliated. But no surprise that Pakistanis are supporting these indian traitors because they fear the rise of a resurgent and belligerent Hindustan!

Yes surgical strike 3 is coming. We are all scared that we might lose few more tress.

 

[Prince of Pakistan]

Hindu facism at its peak.

Heard someone speak of Hindu yatra if Modi stays. Either be a hindu or die.

 

[m.shah]

Stand up for what? To get lynched by the filthy mob..

 

[AZulfi]

What a nation?

 

[Cpt. Rishwat]

It is Godse's land now. Gandhi has been assassinated for the second time.

Very nice. Shame we don't have a culture forum, this would deserve to be pinned there under the poetry section.

Sadly the alternatives are even worse, aren’t they ?

 

[MP2011]

Sadly the alternatives are even worse, aren’t they ?

No, they aren’t. Even at their worst, they are still far better than BJP at its best. BJP has hit the very foundation of India.

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

No.

I believe Congress of 2019 will be a good govt.

What amazing tactics by this channel. Showing pictures of coffins whilst he talks. Psychological games

You guys really think Rahul is better alternative than Modi? Not disputing it but would like to get your opinions on this.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

You can see same kind of people here in this forum too. I won't name them because my josh is 50% currently and I don't want to look like a cartoon by naming them.

Anyone would be better than that megalomaniac who is in campaign mode 24x7! Who does nothing apart from photo ops at every possible opportunity! He is someone who has brought down the public discourse to his level which is gutter. Under him India has gone back decades in terms of communal harmony, development and economy.

If he is best we have got I shudder for my dear country’s future.

 

[rhony]

Was anyone lynched for speaking in favor of Imran in India? Stop exaggerating. Cowards don't have right to speak their mind. Because they can't back it up when it matters like this idiot kneeling down. Even worse are people like that other poster bhagvirubhaag, one of those that never has his own view point, doesn't support any view, criticizes without any opposing viewpoint and is just a waste of space. Democracy is about speaking your mind and standing up for it. Show me one post by that poster which provides insights into any discussion.

 

[Zaz]

What a shame Even so called educated indian anchors are pedalling for war and you are with us or with them narrative

Theres no room civilised discussion or difference of opinion Shame

Why do you describe this professor as a coward? Is there something about this incident that I am unaware of which justifies the accusation.

 

[rhony]

I call him a coward because he bowed down to pressure. If he can't stand by his own comments or views and if he hasn't made a mistake, why is he kneeling down? What is he teaching in his profession? Democracy is responsible free speech. If he said something wrong, then he violated it. If he didn't, he made a mistake now by publicly bowing down. What good is he for any community?

 

[sensible-indian-fan]

Congress will employ experts to guide Rahul.

Some Indians just want an alpha male in the PM seat. That's ok but problem is that the alpha male isn't performing.

The new Rahul is a changed man. With time, we will see him get better at what he does.

He will be fine.

It has been reported that the professor was allegedly persuaded by the college management to apologise as ABVP made their stand clear and started a demonstration.

When the professor finally came out to apologise, the protestors made him kneel and apologise for his mistake with his hands folded. The ABVP workers even made Warthar promise that he would not ever post such comments on social media ever again.

Commenting on the incident, College principal Professor VP Huggi said Warthar has not been suspended as of now and order on the same will be issued on Tuesday when the college reopens.

He further stated that Warthar has switched off his phone and is unreachable at present.

This is not the first time ABVP have treated a college professor in this manner. Last year, a college professor from Madhya Pradesh had to touch the feet of an ABVP worker to apologise after he had initially stopped them from raising nationalist slogans.

To be fair to ABVB, they had protested his post without use of violence, which is their democratic right.

But don't know what kind of pressure they applied through other channels. They showed their mentality by making this professor bow down to apologize.

 

[warcry]

my 2 cents on the whole congress vs bjp from a pakistani perspective
does it really matter?
One is only there because of his surname.
The other is unqualified chai wala who is prepared to go to war to win the upcoming election.

do you really think Congress Governemnt would have good relations with Pakistan?

This is the beauty of democracy, two choices, and both are wrong, basically like PPP vs PML-N.

What India needs is good old fashioned Military Rule. Someone unfraid of political consequences would be able to bring peace to the region.

Isn't he surrounded by a mob? This is something which is quite usual in India, we saw the same in the videos of Kashmiri students who were slapped around by angry citizens. I would say the cowards here are those who only seem to find their bravery when they are in a crowd.

See I don't care about ABVP or some other organization. One party here used their democratic right to stand up to what they believe and one didn't. And they people are saying democracy died because of what ABVP did. Hell no, they are the ones who used it fully while the other buckled. People can't be scared to stand up to their opinion. Opinions change and could be right or wrong. If they think it's wrong, they should just say that they were wrong with conviction. Instead this drama in front of press kneeling down shows how big a loser he is.

Kashmiri students were assaulted and the parties that did it got no support. There is also news that there is video evidence to get those goons prosecuted. This is different. He said something and then gave up. As per reports there was no assault either.

 

[Jind25086]

Very well done

 

[sshakir411]

Would have been beaten to death if he was Muslim

 

[90MPH]

Sad to see but I don’t blame him for keeling considering the current environment.

Again I will blame the Indian media because they have done nothing but fanning the flames of hatred for the past decade.

It's not as easy as it seems.

The institution where the incident occurred is run by Bijapur Lingayat Development Education Society, which is owned by Karnataka Home Minister and Congress leader MB Patil.

It has been reported that the professor was allegedly persuaded by the college management to apologise as ABVP made their stand clear and started a demonstration.

When you are facing pressure from your own institute (becasue they don't want any trouble), you can't just be adamant.

How many of us will be willing to lose our jobs by sticking to what posts we make on social media.
