Two months back, at St. Ann's Degree College, Political Science class was going on. There was a topic called "Jihad" in our text book. Our Lecturer, Ms. Shanthi, was teaching this topic in the class. While giving the lecture, she said, "Some organizations are creating terror and destroying peace in the name of Jihad". That is all she said! That is a plain fact and it is not really unoffensive. She was merely teaching a topic that was part of the syllabus.
The Muslim girls in our class felt offended. Immediately after the class, they contacted other Muslim girls in other classes. All of them contacted their family members over the mobile. Soon, their parents along with MIM leaders (and Congress leaders too) descended into our college. Soon, police came into the college and booked a case against our lecturer for "hurting the feelings of other communities". Our lecturer was made to pulicly apologise in front of all the students for hurting their feelings. The case was closed.
All this happened on the same day within a span of 5 hours.
Many of us were speechless.
If Muslim girls, whose ages are less than 20, are like this, what can we say about others?
ALl the girls come from rich Muslim families. Approximately 50% of these families have business background and the other 50% have well-educated background, with their parents working in government and private organizations.
It was extremely digusting to us! They never mix properly with us
