Indian professor arrested over social media comments deemed offensive to female soldiers.

Ali Khan Mahmudabad, an associate professor at Ashoka University, was arrested for comments made on social media about Operation Sindoor, a military operation by India. The arrest followed a complaint by a BJP youth leader and a notice from the Haryana State Women's Commission, which claimed his remarks undermined women in the armed forces and promoted communal disharmony. Ashoka University stated that the professor's views do not reflect the institution's stance.
