Phagwara: Lovely Professional University has sacked an assistant professor after a video of her insulting Lord Ram had gone viral on the internet.

The purported video of Gursang Preet Kaur making derogatory comments had surfaced on social media on Saturday, leading to the demand that she be sacked.

In the video, Gursang Preet Kaur while speaking to the students, said that Ravana was a good person and Ram was a bad person. "Do you know Ravana was a good person by heart' Ram is not a good person. Ram is not a good person at all. Ravana is a good person. I find Ram to be a cunning person," she said in the video. Singh further said that Ram made plans to trap Sita and later blamed all of them on Ravana.

"He made all the plans to trap Sita. He put Sita into trouble and puts all the blame on Ravana. How can we decide who is good and who is evil'" she added further. "And the whole world is worshipping Ram saying that Ravana is a bad person,' the ex-LPU professor said. The professor who has now been sacked by the LPU asked her students to make such arguments to make people think about 'who is bad and who is good''

The University released a statement on its official Instagram account, saying that it regretted the incident and informed that the concerned professor had been immediately relieved from the services.

The private university in a statement said, "We understand that some people have been hurt by the video shared on social media, where one of our faculty members can be heard sharing her personal opinion."

"We wish to clarify that the views shared by her are absolutely personal and the university does not endorse any of them. We have always been a secular university, where people from all religions and faith are treated equally with love and respect. She has been relieved from the services with immediate effect. However, we deeply regret this whole incident," the university added.

When contacted, university vice-president Aman Mittal said the assistant professor was sacked on Saturday.
