Hyderabad: A case has been booked against a Hyderabad student pursuing her Bachelor’s of Business Administration (BBA) in a private degree college at Champapet for allegedly passing remarks in support of Pakistan and condemning Operation Sindoor, India’s offensive against suspected terror camps in Pakistan.
The girl reportedly posted “Pakistan Zindabad” in the college friends’ whatsapp group, and raised doubts on the Pahalgam terror incident in which 26 tourists were killed in Kashmir on April 22.
The Hyderabad student also posted some statements in support of Pakistan on social media platform instagram. The issue came to light after some of the college students informed the management and leaked the information to outsiders.
