Bengaluru PES University professor suspended after abusive incident in classroom A professor at Bengaluru’s PES University was suspended following an incident in which he reportedly used derogatory language toward a student, calling them a "terrorist" during a class session. The incident, which sparked widespread discussion, led to the professor’s immediate suspension by the university management. According to a senior police officer, the administration requested a delay in filing a formal police complaint, citing the need for an internal departmental inquiry. The professor was placed under suspension pending further investigation. The altercation reportedly occurred in a classroom, where the professor allegedly targeted a student with verbal abuse. While details of the incident remain unclear, the university’s management stated that they would await the outcome of the internal inquiry before taking further legal action. The police officer noted that the professor’s suspension was a precautionary measure, emphasizing that the university’s decision to withhold immediate police involvement was part of an internal process. The incident has raised questions about the boundaries of academic conduct and the role of educators in maintaining a respectful learning environment. Students and faculty members have expressed mixed reactions, with some condemning the professor’s behavior as unacceptable, while others have called for a thorough investigation to determine the validity of the allegations. The university has yet to release an official statement detailing the circumstances of the incident or the specific nature of the professor’s remarks. The case has also drawn attention to broader issues of campus discipline and the handling of misconduct by faculty members.#bengaluru #student #pes_university #professor #internal_inquiry
