'A Muslim can’t teach us our dharma' — BHU Sanskrit students want professor out

V-C says can’t reject anyone based on religion. Feroz Khan, the assistant professor appointed to teach Sanskrit, says he is feeling insulted by students' protest.

Prabha, you are just doing the same thing the BJP is doing : conflating Hinduism and Hindutva.

Hindutva by itself is morally indefensible ; why allow it to hide behind Hinduism?

Agreed, Hinduism itself has a long way to go before we can create an egalitarian society in India.

The "boil the ocean" approach isn't going to work ; let's prioritize the struggle against Hindutva and save our nation first, over reform in Hinduism.

Please don’t do false equivalence. Hindutva ideology did not do this Hindus did this, same with many other things. Let’s stop pretending that majority Hindus are turning bigoted

@Deepsealioness @AmitRamesan @ranjona @KavitaKrishnan We keep on denying, but everywhere FB, Twitter & WA groups, the story is the same. We label them as Hindutva, but all of them happen to be our own friends, colleagues & relatives. Just handful of Hindus who r openly calling out the hatred. V keep on saying 31% when almost the entire country voted for Modi with a massive mandate. It's time we recognize this. At the moment, I personally feel, all is lost and V r no different than the Nazis.
@cprogrammer @Deepsealioness @AmitRamesan @ranjona @KavitaKrishnan the problem is that the same Hindus have no qualms demanding louder denials from mainstream Muslims whenever an international terrorist event happens. What's good for the goose is not good for the gander, apparently, when it comes to conflation.
