Indian student of Buffalo University slammed for derogatory social media comments, he says he never wrote them
An Indian student of New York's Buffalo University was accused of making derogatory comments on social media. A major social media outrage began over some purported comment of one Aaditya Verma, whose various social media comments, all derogatory, went viral. One particular comment that enraged X users was on a Delhi University student whose body was recovered from the Yamuna River in Delhi recently. Several people liked the comment that was made on the looks of the deceased. Social media users tagged the University of Buffalo urging them to take action against the student, also to deport him. Even FBI chief Kash Patel was tagged in some of the posts that demanded action against Aaditya Verma. "Thank you for reporting this comment, which is unacceptable and is contrary to the University at Buffalo's values. UB's Office of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) will investigate this and take appropriate action. Please know that due to federal privacy laws and regulations, we cannot disclose any information about actions taken regarding UB students," the university replied to a complaint, according to a screenshot shared on X. Aaditya Verma, the person concerned, issued a statement on LinkedIn that he became and target of cyberbullying and he never wrote those comments. "To everyone who knows me-- you already know this isn't who I am. And others please verify before believing or spreading false narratives. This could happen to anyone," the person wrote. As the university has not issued any official statement and only replied to complaints, it is not yet known whether the Indian student was target of cyberbullying or if he actually made the posts.
