Lucknow: The principal of a medical college in Uttar Pradesh has attracted criticism after a widely shared video purportedly showed her referring to the Tablighi Jamaat members as “terrorists”.
Kanpur Medical College Principal Dr Aarti Lalchandani allegedly said that the Jamaat members should be sent to “solitary confinements” in jails or “sent to jungles and be locked up in dungeons”, instead of being kept in isolation. Scroll.in has not been able to independently verify the video.
The video shows Lalchandani making the derogatory remarks in front of several people. “We should not say this, but they are terrorists,” Lalchandani said. “And we are providing them VIP treatment, providing them food…exhausting our resources on them.”
