“They showed the world a way,” said Neha Bora in a viral clip, about Bangladeshi student protesters. The All Indian Students Association (AISA) president was giving a “red salute” to the protesters from the neighbouring country. Around this time, protests demanding the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar over the alleged irregularities in the handling of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls were picking up momentum in Delhi.
Neha’s words were picked up by news channels and social media, and the student leader was accused of calling for a “regime change.”
