Who Is Suryanarayana Doolla? IIT Bombay Professor At Centre Of Student Suicide Row
Professor Suryanarayana Doolla was involved in reporting the alleged examination malpractice to the institute's authorities.
Mumbai: Congress spokesperson Dr Shama Mohamed has expressed her support for IIT Bombay professor Suryanarayana Doolla following the suicide of student Sahil Wakode. Mohamed stated that it is a normal disciplinary practice to reprimand a student caught cheating during an examination. She also advocated for the establishment of mental health therapists in colleges to aid student wellbeing.
"If a student is caught cheating, it is normal to admonish him and ask him to leave the room," she emphasized. Furthermore, Mohamed encouraged students who faced caste-based harassment to approach the SC/ST department. Her comments come amid allegations by Wakode's family that he experienced caste-based harassment, a claim IIT Bombay has denied. "In this suicide, I stand with Professor Doolla," Mohamed declared.
