Rajasthan: A video from Haridev Joshi University of Journalism and Mass Communication in Jaipur recently went viral on social media, showing a girl student taking a sharp dig at the university while receiving her degree from Prem Chand Bairwa, the Deputy Chief Minister of Rajasthan.

In the clip, as she walks up to the stage, the student remarks, “Beizzati karke izzat dene par university ka bahut-bahut shukriya” (thank you so much, HJU, for giving respect after insulting us), triggering widespread reactions online.

The student, identified as Sara Ismail, later shared the entire ordeal on her social media account. Recounting the incident, she highlighted the disappointment and anger felt by those who attended the event. According to her, 271 students from previous academic years were invited to the ceremony with the promise of receiving their degrees.

She said, “Two hundred and seventy-one students from last year and the year before were invited and told they would be given their degrees. They were asked to come in a specific dress code. Students from all over Rajasthan came with their parents. They believed they would receive their degrees, be honoured, and make their parents proud.”
