‘SO MUCH HATRED THAT IS PERSONAL’

-

Gurmehar Kaur says she never thought her Facebook post would go viral.

“I was not there at the spot where this horrific incident took place, but when I got to know that some of my friends were injured during the clash and stones were pelted on them, I got so upset, I could not bear that and took to social media to show my protest,” she said. “The students who were attacked by the ABVP were Indians and they call it nationalis­m. What kind of nationalis­m is this?” she questions.

On the reactions, she said: “I had never imagined that I would get such a support from everyone but there is a lot of hatred too and that is personal, which is not acceptable.”
