Moreover, when the argument heated up, the teacher even said, “You’re like my own kid,” to which the student responded, “Would you tell the same thing to your kid? Will you call him also a terrorist? 26/11 is not something funny! Being a Muslim and facing such things everyday in this country is not funny at all. How can you call me a terrorist in front of whole class? You’re a teacher, a professional!”
However, the teacher can be heard saying a “sorry”, though the student doesn’t seem to be convinced at all with that! Furthermore, as soon as the video went viral on the internet, the majority of netizens slammed the teacher for his remarks, adding that each and every student is equal for a teacher, irrespective of his/her caste and religion. “Simply a sorry wouldn’t change how you are portraying yourself,” said the student.
Another Twitter user, on the matter, commented that it is sad to see a professor with a degree acting in a bigoted and hateful manner while in a position of authority. Additionally, the user called the incident shameful.
Furthermore, the netizens on twitter, condemned the entire incident.
Literally I felt the same in my grad days some lectures use to target and many were calss friends making jokes with us linking me to tailban and terrorists. Like hell. We have been experiencing this in India since independence.
