‘Students, mostly from the ABVP, were protesting against Khan’s appointment. They said only a Hindu can teach Sanskrit at the university in Varanasi.’
very false narrative by print .it was to teach dharma and ritual.
i wish print inquire to appoint Hindu pastor in the church as he knows bibal and do not believe on Christ
On further research , I found that the students were not averse to him teaching sanskrit, they were averse to him teaching Dharma subjects; Which means that he was preaching Hindu religion ; He was not a sanskrit prof. he was a professor of Hindu Dharma.
The students were ok with him teaching sanskrit, but they did not want a non hindu teaching Hindu religion; Kindly get your facts straight when you write an article
