An old saying goes: “When a jackal’s time comes, it moves to the city.” But when a professor’s time came, he chose to propose marriage to his student in the middle of a full classroom.
In a bizarre incident that has gone viral on social media, a medical college professor in Bangalore, India, proposed to a female student during a lecture, leading to a heated confrontation that ended with students physically assaulting the professor.
‘I Want to Propose to One of You’
According to Indian media reports and video footage circulating online, the professor can be heard saying while his microphone was on:
“Today, I would like to propose to one of the most important girls in my batch.”
The professor then turned to a specific student, claiming that she had expressed love for him.
Student’s Strong Denial
The female student immediately denied the professor’s claim:
“I did not say that,” she can be heard saying firmly, rejecting both his assertion and his proposal.
The exchange escalated into a heated argument, with the professor insisting that the student had confessed her feelings to him.
Students Beat Professor with Shoes and Fists
After the class ended, the student and her classmates decided to take matters into their own hands. According to reports, the professor was subjected to a severe beating at the hands of students.
Witnesses stated that the professor was beaten with shoes, slaps, and kicks by the angry students who were outraged by his inappropriate behavior.
