Such a daughter is an embarrassment for the entire family. Mr. Vikram Misri is unfortunate in the extreme to have been “blessed” with such children. Ms. Didon Misri has tarnished the image and reputation her father had built up painstakingly over several decades through dedicated service to the nation.
IAS/IFS/IPS officers are usually busybodies who hardly have much time for their family or children. At times, this results in the “apple falling far from the tree”.
It pains to see Mr. Misri being targeted by Right wing trolls for the shameful deeds of his daughter.
If Mr. Misri’s daughter is indeed fighting court cases on behalf of illegal Rohingya immigrants than it is shameful indeed.
However, it’s not Mr. Misri’s fault. He should not be abused for the misdeeds of his daughter.
Guess the daughter must be a bleeding heart liberal educated at some Left-leaning college/university who thinks Indi is a “dharamshala” where anyone can just walk in and demand to stay and eventually become a citizen. Unfortunately, that seems to be the case with the children of most IAS/IFS/IAS officers. They educate their wards at Sanskriti School or Jesus and Mary’s Convent and these idiots graduate with all kinds of stupid ideas in their head. Eventually they end up being a part of the Aman ka Tamasha gang.
One cannot but feel sorry for Mr. Vikram Misri. The unworthy daughter has brought disrepute and ignominy to him.
