Can't justify this act.......
For \TWO SLAP\" principal has admitted 2 days in hospital and politicize the internal issue through community/paid media.
I am not supporting this student but there is some reason behind this slap. Don't bring politics, community and ego in this issue and solve internally."
Brother Alwyn.. Dont pull this issue to political & drag muslim organisation.... Person who has done the mistake ofcourse he has to be punished.. no matter to which community he is belonged to...
Without any knowledge dont comment blindly....
IF you look at the Video there were more persons involved in the planned attack. Campus front of india, Popular Front of India, KFD, SDPI, Muslim League should join hands together to save Muslim student shahnavaz. other wise he will be in trash.
