A question asked to first year students of Sharda University in their BA Political Science examination earlier this week has stirred a controversy online.
On Friday, the university in Uttar Pradesh's Greater Noida released a statement that said that a three-member committee has been formed to look into the matter. Meanwhile, the university said that pending the final report, the concerned faculty has been suspended.
The question read as follows: “Do you find any similarities between Fascisim/Nazism and Hindu right wing (Hindutva)? Elaborate with arguments.”
The subjective question held 7 marks in the 50-mark paper for the Political Ideologies course.
'Averse to This Line of Thought,' Says University
Ajit Kumar, Director of Public Relations, Sharda University told News Agency that the question was asked in an internal examination.
"Taking suo motu cognisance of the matter, the Vice-Chancellor formed a committee with three senior members. While the committee's inquiry into the matter is underway, it was decided that the professor would be suspended in the interim pending the findings," he added.
