"Sharm Nahi Aati...Terrorist": Bengaluru Professor's Outburst Against Student A controversy has erupted at Bengaluru's PES University after a professor allegedly made derogatory and communal remarks against a Muslim student during a classroom session, sparking widespread outrage. The incident, which occurred on Tuesday, reportedly began when the student, identified as Affan, asked for permission to step out of the class to meet someone. The professor, Dr. Muralidhar Deshpande, an adjunct faculty member at the university, is accused of making a series of abusive and inflammatory comments, including blaming "people like him" for the Iran war, suggesting Donald Trump would "come and take him away," and telling the student he would "go to hell." The university authorities responded swiftly, suspending the professor pending an investigation. A letter from the Vice Chancellor of PES University stated that a student complaint had been received and that disciplinary measures would be taken. The letter, however, did not specify the nature of the offense, stating only that the professor was "kept under suspension with immediate effect." The Vice Chancellor emphasized that the university has a policy requiring faculty members to undergo training on classroom conduct and managing disciplinary issues. The Vice Chancellor also noted that this incident "has never happened in the history of the institution" and assured that "whatever disciplinary measures are needed will be taken against that particular faculty." However, the professor is not a full-time member of the university, which has raised questions about the institution's oversight.#bengaluru #dr_muralidhar_deshpande #affan #pes_university #national_student_union_of_india
