A controversial incident occurred at the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay, bringing attention to problems of inclusivity and respect on college campuses. Reports state that a student was publicly shamed in the hostel cafeteria for eating non-vegetarian food. There was reportedly an incident at Hostel 12 where some students put up posters excluding non-vegetarians from the space.
Those who preferred non-vegetarian meals were allegedly forced to leave. This has caught the attention of student groups like the Ambedkar Periyar Phule Study Circle (APPSC) who are advocating for creating inclusive environments that embrace diversity and respect individual choices. As educational institutions, the IITs are intended to be nurturing environments that value diversity and promote positive discourse. It is crucial to promptly address any incidents and foster constructive discussions in order to maintain a harmonious and tolerant atmosphere on campus.
