Certainly not in the heart of me or most of the Indians I know. Maybe it's in your heart, so limit your comments to yourself. I see a non aligned India as the future, and it also has been our past. We stand for ourselves, and do not depend on others. Likewise, we do not take political or religious stand unless it concerns us directly. And this is certainly the thought of a true humanist, to not interfere in the matters of other humans and let them have the resolution of their issues by their own means, preferably through dialogue and non violent means.

You all here appreciating him because he said it. But I bet if he were our colleague and he asked us if he should talk about this issue, most of us would have replied in negative (maybe including me as well, which is why it is more imp for me to say this). We would have said 'it is not the right place for such a thing' or this or that. Only excuses. How often have we spoken about the wrong or dared to even point it out? What he did was only inspiring to me. I don't know if I were in his place, I would have dared. But now I will. Because he did. I must speak about the wrong especially people in my field are mindlessly doing. Thank you bro.

So commendable. I love watching students use their platform to shed light on topics like these, that are seen as taboo, or unacceptable to talk about. Even when the mic gets cut, which has occurred a saddening amount of times when people talk about Palestine, it just shows you their intentions lie with life. Not money, not power, not hurting other people's feelings. Not even losing their chance at a speech they've probably had written down. When they use their time in front of an audience to mention Palestine, or genocide, or accountability and change, it is honorable. Whether they get to speak or not. They want to spread a message of awareness to their audience. They are saying 'do something'. Even if it is just a flag across the stage while you are walking.
