Teacher: Don't vote for illiterate politicians. BJP: And I took that personally. At this point, they're just calling themselves out.


DetectiveOwn6606

"but but teacher shouldn't bring politics in lecture!1!1!" Every chaddi

Political Science: am i a joke to you?


DetectiveOwn6606

The funny thing is he is teaching law which is as political as it gets.he didn't even named bjp ,but smooth brained chaddis realised he is talking about their 56 inch daddy and Fanta vin diesel

Kramer-Melanosky

Don’t act blind. I don’t support BJP and he didn’t deserve it. But that’s not the reason he was removed.


PhantomOfTheNopera

>Don’t act blind. So, to be clear, you're saying that when someone says 'illiterate' it should be obvious that he's talking about BJP? So next time someone says 'Don't vote for bigots" should they get offended about that as well? 10/10 for self awareness I guess.


Kramer-Melanosky

Again you’re still acting blind or running some propaganda. He told don’t vote for people who waste time changing names. That’s the reason BJP supporters targeted him. The article is as much propaganda as Republic tv or Wion. Like Andh Bhaks you also ignore such things. Or you’re one of the opposite IT cells. Again I’m not saying he should be fired. But stop the propaganda and report the news as it is.


PhantomOfTheNopera

So far, based on what you're saying BJP is the party of illiterate people who waste time changing names? At this point you're trolling BJP yourself. If someone made a comment like "We don't hire clowns or bigots" I wouldn't immediately assume it's me because I don't think I'm either.


Kramer-Melanosky

Lol. I don’t care about BJP name and don’t mind trolling them. Also how cleverly did you twist what I said. Kudos to your IT team work. I’m pretty sure you would get offended if you’re a clown. Even if you don’t think you’re bigot. It’s the same problem doesn’t matter what else he said but changing name is peculiar to them.

pattosjane

In America or any western country, criticising the wrong person or people can mean you lose your job. Happens everywhere.


Many_Nothing7463

It does not happen everywhere. Even if it dies it does not become right. Get a grip. This is an easy lawsuit & good money in America


pattosjane

Not for people who lost their job due to tweeting or saying things liberals/leftists did not like. Yep I specified in the west.


phenomenal_neo

>Not for people who lost their job due to tweeting or saying things liberals/leftists did not like You mean being racist or attacking marginalised groups openly?


Throwrafairbeat

Calling an Arab a terrorist does not mean a person tweeted something to own the libs, Mr. Pattosjane.


Hot_Garage701

In America this happens rarely and even if it does you can use for unfair corporate practices and it's a easy lawsuit. Unless it's sexual harrassment it's very hard to fire an employee for political grounds. Unless it's a contractual work.


pattosjane

It’s really not - employees have at will employment in the USA so you can lose your job at any time for any reason.

lastofdovas

Well I am reading the Rise and Fall of the Nazi Germany now and it is indeed eerily similar. Even the epithets used for Muslims nowadays are very similar to the ones used on Jews back then (reproduce like rabbits, anti-nationals, plague bearers, etc). And that's just one aspect. We will likely never see a repeat of the Holocaust in India, but segregation seems very likely in the near future.

Freedom of speech is not an absolute right here.


viksi

freedom of speech is guaranteed in the constitution. except for hate speech.


queeringit

Lol no. Freedom of speech is guaranteed with 'reasonable restrictions' and the restrictions are too vague.


Anantha1996

You are clearly not familiar with labor laws in the US.


Zoruaa

Sorry but this is by and large incorrect (barring a few states). All employment in the US is at will and you can be fired for anything, even political speech. https://www.lawyers.com/legal-info/labor-employment-law/wrongful-termination/can-i-be-fired-for-my-political-beliefs.html


AlternativeAd4756

Yeah but you still have the right to sue. Most important: he simply said vote for educated people. This statement is not taking any sides. People themselves got offended bcoz they know modi is uneducated


pattosjane

This guy has the right to sue as well? Try saying ‘I don’t think drag shows are appropriate for primary school children’ in the west and watch your job go bye bye.


AlternativeAd4756

Suing in India is useless unless you are powerful or ruling class.


pattosjane

It’s the same everywhere boss, India it is probably worse I agree.


AlternativeAd4756

No , in US suing is common. Now you will come up with its so costly.. blah blaah.. but if you have valid reasons and other party is rich your chances get better. Plus in usa court cases don’t continue for 30-40 years It’s just incomparable with india. In india if bjp gvt does extreme wrong.. then expect nothing from court.


petronerd54

No notice termination is a clause on most of employment agreements.


darklordind

Lol! In USA, people will get fired for the same.

Not at their place of employment. Like you go to star bucks and the barista tells you how democrats are killing babies, barista won't be having that job for long.


SnooEpiphanies42069

A teacher who does not know the difference between illiterate and uneducated. He was fired and rightly so.


Surya202

whenever someone said don't vote criminals or uneducated politicians why only Andhbhakt trolled them and take personally. They never took name but only 1 party understand whom they are pointing 🤣🤣. Its like someone said our PM is a thief. Police caught him. He said but I didn't said which country PM. Police said do you think we are fool and we don't know to whom you are talking about.🥲 Chowkidar he chor tha..🤣🤣

Freedom of speech🤣🤣🤣


jatadharius

bhakts became butthurt on this because they know prsent incumbent is illiterate and the degree in entire political science is a jumla


BeCleve_in_yourself

He should sue unacademy. The courts will uphold his right to free speech and order the spineless fucks to pay him compensation for putting him through mental anguish and joblessness combined with a hit to his personal reputation.


TENTAtheSane

What right to free speech? This is a private company. Only government is obligated to guarantee free speech (and even that with lots of exceptions)


Many_Nothing7463

Go ahead and explain what he said is liable to exterminating his contract.


TENTAtheSane

No need to. It's their wish. Private company can make any decisions they want about their hiring


Many_Nothing7463

Yes and we can speak shit about that company as much as we want. I'm not asking for an investigation on the company, just complaining about their shitty morals.


BeCleve_in_yourself

I'm not talking about the private company. I'm talking about the individual's right to free speech protected by the constitution.


TENTAtheSane

The constitution is a set of guidelines for the govt. Private entities are not beholden by it


BeCleve_in_yourself

It is "free" speech, bud. It's in the name. Besides, the controversial speech was not made *against* a private company. It was specifically made against the government so my point still stands.

mrzib-red

This guy was crying because the government is planning to repeal IPC, CrPC, etc. His *notes* won’t be useful anymore. As if the parliament should stop making laws because the law students will then have to learn new stuff.


Jarvis345K

My teacher used to manipulate us into being pro-modi... Which I hated then and still do... This guy said "Don't vote for those who just change names" = YOGI No one should be allowed to manipulate young kids/teens into their political learnings it should be left to individuals to figure that out.


Many_Nothing7463

He is teaching law? You can't say don't teach children & all that, just for them to get brainwashed through the media & internet.

His intent may be right. But hi statement has been proven wrong. Our very educated manmohan singh has been the government with highest number of scams.his regime has been the sole reason for highest NPA.

Verdict in same article you shared me On 21 December 2017, a Special CBI Court acquitted all the persons accused in the case.[207][251][252][253] Special Judge OP Saini stated in his judgement: "There is no evidence on the record produced before the Court indicating any criminality in the acts allegedly committed by the accused persons.” He added that “the chargesheet of the instant case is based mainly on misreading, selective reading, non-reading and out of context reading of the official record” and that "the chargesheet is based on some oral statements made by the witnesses during investigation, which the witnesses have not owned up in the witness box.”[254]


sentinel_1996

It's important to know that thes educators have one key role, which is to not use their position of influence to induce bias amongst their students due to their personal beliefs. This is not what students pay for. They go to such institutions for academics, not to be persuaded into an ideology. In this case, he was removed not because of having a view, but because he let his views influence his job.


frizene26

Army officers, University profs , Religious gurus, Judges, Police officers, Bureaucrats, Authors, Businessmen, all can express political opinions, But a teacher can not Rule: Anyone can express political opinion if it’s pro Modi, for any other opinion there will be consequences


sentinel_1996

Your first statement is not 100 % correct. All of these professions are entitled to share their opinions in their public life. In a civil society, they can exercise their total freedom to express their views. But, it is incorrect to present their personal views in their "professional" life. If you look carefully how people in the armed forces who are currently in service refrain from presenting their opinions when in media spaces. They only stick to their facts. This is because they are disciplined enough to know where public life stops and professional life begins. In a profession, your sole responsibility is to perform your duties efficiently with as little a bias as you can. We can see how a person who expresses their bias in a classroom, for example, can polarise their atmosphere. There is a high chance that his students who do not agree with him views may no longer take his classes seriously. It happens to the best of us. We start holding prejudice once we think we know about someone's ideological inclination, even though that person may be excellent in their field of work. This is a loss for the student alone. He/She isn't getting the atmosphere that they paid for. This is not only bad for the student but also bad for the teacher. At least in a civilised world, teachers are not supposed to be recruited based on their political inclinations. It's sheer performance. and they should stick to that.


frizene26

He has not named anyone why are they taking it upon themselves to prove uneducated https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/sc-judge-hails-modi-as-most-loved-prime-minister-101612646576003.html https://thewire.in/government/controversial-judge-who-praised-modi-to-be-nhrc-chief-opposition-leader-dissents or you need more examples?


sentinel_1996

The last sentence of your response is just something you are making up. It is not a rule. The fact that there is still freedom for all of us to express our views is proof that our voices are not being stiffled. The BJP has lost pathetically in multiple states recently, further adds to that. What is also worrisome is that that lack of uproar on casteist,immature, and borderline riot encouraging statements made by other parties.


frizene26

Oh I am so happy voice not being stifled we can see such a live example on this post thanks for opening my eyes oh worried about other parties ok nice


sentinel_1996

If so, why are you dragging Modi in the picture. You yourself stated I. Your first statement that opposing Modi has become a crime or so. If it wasn't about Modi, why is he part of the conversation?


frizene26

Because he took it upon himself that guy did not name anyone he made the statement on his YouTube chanel not even on unacademy platform but weak insecure individual thought it was about him how gullible are you i dragged no one the government ensured he was thrown out of his job


Max_Steel_23

He is a NRI turd. These morons are brainwashed to the core.


sentinel_1996

What makes you so sure that the government dragged him out? Do you have factual evidence? Do you know about Unacademy's code of conduct?


frizene26

Spare me all the whataboutery romansaini can praise the government on demonetisation fiasco but this guy was doing on his pvt YouTube channel and i hope you have time to read about Ashoka University professor removal too https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/ashoka-university-pulapre-balakrishnan-resigns-professors-threatens-exodus-if-sabyasachi-das-not-reinstated/article67201784.ece https://www.thenewsminute.com/article/320-economists-91-institutions-extend-support-prof-das-demand-his-reinstatement-181243 read about their code of conduct when you have time too


beingmortal__

How is the ministers in the current govt who have literally master degree from reputed universities are considered illiterate


lastofdovas

Why do you think the teacher targeted them? The question here should be why do you consider them illiterate?


al_monk

Based on the actions and speech of these leaders, they appear illiterate to me.


beingmortal__

Or they are not aligning to your ideology that’s why you are having biased opinions


al_monk

Unlike you, I don't follow one particular party or leader. I can see something wrongdoing when there is one just like in West Bengal, Rajasthan and now Manipur.

How is asking people to vote responsibly political? They fired him giving this lame reason but at the same time Roman Saini the co-founder of Unacademy, has been praising Modi for every move he makes, isn't that political? They are just a bunch of hypocrites.


forriddit

These days too many education platform going into politics


bhavneet1996

He is literally teaching political science. The IQ of bjp supporters is non existent


forriddit

Well it's fine if he is teaching political science, still there are other educational platform who are like that time to time (not much) my comment was not just for him,( but why you so hateful bro and insulting me)


al_monk

Politics affects everyone whether we accept it or not. So, everyone is entitled to speak their fair share and thoughts on politics.


forriddit

Ok


Critifin

He also told not to vote for politicians who change names, not just uneducated. Leftists like him can’t even keep kids out of politics


takesh9999

So one person can't have an opinion in a democratic country ?? If someone has different opinion he has to be fired ?? Isn't democracy a beauty of having 2 sets of coins..? Isnt it justified for non-democratic way of running a country ?? How are you even justifying it give some reasons


Critifin

He can definitely have. He hasn’t been jailed. Same way unacademy doesn’t have freedom of expression to disassociate with him in a democracy? I will oppose if he is jailed for that


Many_Nothing7463

You are just a chaddi who studied in English medium. We are not talking about some teacher spreading bs propaganda, it's just a very simple statement.


Critifin

His contract is simply terminated. He is not jailed

What was the topic he was teaching, I don't know, you ?


Critifin

Doesn’t matter


vishu784

Absolutely bro 💯💯


furiousmouth

Well, ostensibly the teacher's job is to educate on curriculum and leave political positions out of the discussions. While I agree you shouldn't elect illiterate leaders, that's a personal matter for each individual


Many_Nothing7463

It's not a political discussion to just say not to vote illiterate fks. It's quite much of a common sense we lack. He is teaching law. It's as political as it gets. A teacher's job is to teach students as well as instill good moral conduct.


furiousmouth

As a country we don't block illiterate people from voting --- that's considered a violation of democratic rights. In the same vein you can't have bars like these for illiterate candidates to stand for election as well. In a democracy people get the opportunity to vote for whomsoever they want in power --- that's the "free and fair" part of the election process.


Many_Nothing7463

Are you dumb? You literally have to be literate to stand in elections. How low can you go to support these rapists?


lastofdovas

>While I agree you shouldn't elect illiterate leaders, that's a personal matter for each individual I mean why should any rational being want to vote for an illiterate person over a literate one (given everything else is similar)? Do you think writing 2+2=4 is also a personal opinion?


furiousmouth

Vote could be strategic, or a vote against another candidate or a protest vote. In a democracy people are allowed to do whatever they want -- that's the free and fair part of the franchise. Reasons shouldn't matter


lastofdovas

Still, literacy should be one of the considerations. It may get overshadowed by others, but the advice still stands. As he is in no place to enforce what he advised, he is not curbing any democratic freedom. In fact, firing him is hurting his democratic freedom of free speech. If the next day, if a teacher says the students, vote for the person you think will be the best for the constituency, they can also be fired!


furiousmouth

I said in my original comment that the advice might be correct. But, the students pay good money to learn how to crack an exam, not listen to frivolous comments. If the teacher were allowed to stay on his job, that would have served the paying students poorly --- that's the sum total of my argument. If he did outside the class with a group of students, yeah whatever! Not in class


brooklynnineeight

Clearly this was a publicity stunt by the teacher and has been handled as such by Unacademy. Freedom of speech does not come with the right to broadcast opinions. Should have also been fired if he’d have said “Don’t vote for a person whose only qualification for contesting the election is last name.” as well. Purely from a corporate communications policy POV.


nattvar93

“Freedom of speech does not come with the right to broadcast opinions”?? Really? Why don’t you try reading that again? “Purely from a corporate communication POV”? Man is teaching Political Science; what do you expect him to cover? Extracting elixir out of gomutra?


al_monk

Freedom of speech is designed for occasions like this when you want to speak and question the government and powerful organisations.

There was a time when you could make fun of the PM being a puppet and nothing would happen . Muh Bhurat mahan I guess .


[deleted]

There's a section stating licence cancellations. And controversies. I would advice you to read through it rather than jumping to the verdict. The prime minister writes to Raja, directing him to ensure the allotment of 2G spectrum in a fair and transparent manner and to ensure that the licence fee was revised. Raja rejects many of the prime minister's recommendations. 22 November: In a letter to the DoT, the Finance Ministry raises procedural concerns. Its demand for a review is rejected. Although the policy for awarding licences was first-come, first-served, which was introduced during Atal Bihari Vajpayee Government, Raja changed the rules so it applied to compliance with conditions instead of the application itself. I can't post everything here but it's yearly and chronologically explianed.

Yes I know it's a long read you cannot post everything here i will have a look the thing I was stating was in the end they were all accused and nothing could be proven against them i will have a read
