An Indian professor was forced to issue a public apology by kneeling down for praising Prime Minister Imran Khan on social media.

According to reports, civil engineering professor of Karnataka college Sandeep Wathar had praised PM Imran in a Facebook post for his continuous peacemaking motions while also accusing the Indian government of BJP for escalating the tensions between the two countries for their personal electoral gains.

India’s right-wing student organization ABVP activists after a demonstration had forced the professor to publically apologize by kneeling down and folding his hands while also clamoring for him to give his resignation.

Despite the professor not filing a complaint against the activists, the members had been prompting the police to register a suo moto complaint against him.
