A professor in a private engineering college in Belagavi was forced to apologise for his social media post about Madakari Nayaka, after a group of youth found it objectionable.
Members of the Karnataka Parishista Pangada Valmiki Rajya Yuva Ghataka complained to the principal of KLE society’s MSS engineering college that their employee, Abhijit Baikerikar, an assistant professor of engineering, had posted an objectionable message about the 18th century warrior from Chitradurga, on social media. They demanded that the teacher submit an unconditional apology or face legal action.
They also threatened to sit in protest in front of the college.
