Haven't said anything against Dalits, words taken out of context: JNU VC clarifies amid row over remarks

JNU Vice Chancellor Santishree Pandit defended her remarks on Dalits and Blacks, stating they were misrepresented for political reasons. She clarified her comments were aimed at "wokes" using victimhood politically, not against any community. Pandit asserted her support for equity, citing her own beneficiaries and admiration for Dr. Ambedkar, while faculty members backed her, calling the controversy a destabilization attempt.
