Even in Kerala, a state with a 100% literacy rate, a Dalit PhD scholar had to go on a hunger strike just to ask for fair treatment. For over a year, her research was stalled. Finally, the University has accepted her demands.
Let's stop the misuse of the SC/ST Act at IITs -- and everywhere in India
Let's stand in solidarity with Prof Suryanarayana Doolla.
My appeal to all fellow IITians and faculty members of all IITs.
Very courageous by Prof @Suryakant_Waghm to publicly take this stand & call out 'IIT Bombay Faculty Forum'. If institute itself has apologized saying it erred by releasing details of a case under investigation-- why is "Faculty Forum" so eager to jump the gun & issue solidarity?
This photo I had clicked when the police was asking the media not to click pictures or shoot videos of the pyre. We all were asked or rather forced not to go near the pyre.

Bullshit. If it were your son in Sahil’s place, you wouldn’t have tweeted any of what you have tweeted so far. It was your real, elite, casteist, anti-Dalit, evil mindset that took over and that’s why this tweet.
How dare you say that I stand with casteist predators? My issue was about a student copying during exams. Even if my son did it, I would see to it that he is admonished & sent away from the examination hall. Earlier, IIT mumbai said that Sahil was caught cheating - I took their word as IIT mumbai’s rank is 134 th in the world & one of our premium institutes.
I have clearly mentioned in my tweet that if casteist slurs were made by the professor, they should complain to SC/ST cell.
The father should have lodged a complaint with the institution much before this incident. My community suffers as much as the dalits in India.
We apologise for the statements contained in our earlier communication concerning the circumstances surrounding the unfortunate demise of Sahil.
The details and circumstances leading up to the incident remain subject to investigation by the appropriate authorities. In view of the ongoing investigation, it was inappropriate to have set out or characterised details relating to the events preceding his demise before they had been duly established through the appropriate investigative process.
IIT Bombay Director should be sacked and booked under SC/ST Act for putting fake statement of cheating in Exam. The damaged is already been made and now withdraws it conveniently!
This was a casteist attempt to save predator professor! Dalit life is so cheap that can any third grade teacher sitting in top institutions on the behest of govt reward programs can belittle the tarnish the image of the student, who has to choose death over caste discrimination.

Listen you sexual abuser Upper Caste filth,
We want Separate Electorate. Do not mix us with your Conservative kinds segragation demand.
Your liberal ass wants to cling to our SCSTOBC lives to draw your poetic catharsis.
The fact that your upper caste brahmin genes female bestie @sabsezyadaa , who abuses ALL MEN, her filthy progeny Upper Caste son is alive and thrives in USA
Upper Caste Filth @sabsezyadaa herself proclaims atheist but supports spouses Casteist Religion
Filthy upper caste kinds
Kya Badhiya Toolkit hai
> First Publish Unverifiable statements to discredit the incident and blame the victim of caste discrimination
> Let the Godi and Mainstream Media amplify the Casteist Narrative, Caste criminal Trolls like Ajeet Bharti, Neha Laldas and Anuradha Tiwari get thier talking points and spread the Prejudiced vitriol against the Students belonging to protected communities
> Retract the Communication after the Damage has been done
This is how the Institutional Capture and UC Hegemony operates across Media, Universities and Intelligensia
People (also includes many inside INC) make fun of Rahul Gandhi when he points out the lack of diversity inside the Media Newsrooms or when he says that majority of university leadership positions are being held by people connected to Sangh Parivar and RSS
RG's claims stands vindicated and We don't need any more proof after seeing how this incident has been playing out

Quotas are good but India never really held upper castes accountable for their casteism or sensitized them about it. The fact that merit-dhari pride & reservation-availer shame is a thing is a testament to the fact that affirmative action in india has been half-assed as fuck.
There are multiple laws in India where the burden of proof shifts to the accused.
The SC/ST act, UAPA, the consent law, PMLA to name a few.
Every one of them has been misused.
I know Savarna solidarity, i know these mfs will come together to save rapist, casteist etc but right now they are blaming reservation for the death of a Teenager who literally scored 8.5 GPA in first year. Wtf man they don’t have heart. Just caste solidarity. I hate them sm ugh
