Ashoka University

The email was in response to an alumnus who had questioned the university’s silence on Professor Mahmudabad’s arrest.

Not only students, but the professors of Ashoka University have also faced backlash for their irresponsible research work and behaviour.

Ashoka University Professor Ali Khan Mahmudabad was arrested on Sunday by Delhi Police for making controversial remarks through a social media post about Operation Sindoor.

In February 2024, AUSG issued a statement condemning the military action of Israel in Gaza and "demanded" the "genocide" in Gaza must stop. The post on social media described the horrifying terror attack on 7th October by Hamas terrorists in Israeli territory as "events taking place on 7th of October 2023".

Ashoka University claimed that the "freedom of expression is not unlimited" per the guidelines of the institution.

Mr Sinha, a popular nationalist X user, demanded "belt treatment" for those raising 'Brahmin-Baniyawaad Murdabad' slogans at the Ashoka University.

Glaring flaws, loopholes, and dataset-related mistakes have been pointed out in Das' paper by numerous economists. However, for the Left ecosystem, facts do not matter. What matters is their conviction that a certain ideology should be above scrutiny or criticism and should be accepted by all without any question.

The Wire report has tried to make a martyr out of Das, asserting that he had to resign because of political pressure, and not due to the fact that the University had publicly denounced his attempts to create social media activism out of an unpublished, yet to be peer-reviewed paper.
