'I Am Bringing Kuku Chaudhary': Kumar Vishwas's Brother Gets 22 Threats In 22 Minutes; Probe On
Last Updated: Dr Vikas Sharma, brother of poet Kumar Vishwas, received 22 death threats in 22 minutes on WhatsApp. Police are probing the sender and the mysterious 'Kuku Chaudhary' Dr Vikas Sharma, an English professor at Chaudhary Charan Singh University (CCSU) and the brother of noted poet and former AAP leader Dr Kumar Vishwas, has reportedly become the target of a series of chilling WhatsApp threats. Late Tuesday night, over the course of just 22 minutes, Dr Sharma, who lives in Meerut, received 22 abusive messages, including explicit death threats, raising a serious alarm among university circles and prompting a full-scale police investigation. The messages, sent between 11:05 pm and 11:27 pm, included death threats and vulgar language. The sender identified himself as Dheeraj Kumar Kaushik and made a chilling reference: 'I am bringing Kuku Chaudhary." Police are currently investigating the identity and background of the individual named in the threat. The sender also attempted to call Dr Sharma, though the call went unanswered. Investigation Underway Following a formal complaint at the Medical Police Station, police have launched a probe. Dr Sharma, who lives in Shastri Nagar and is also a published novelist, has requested security for himself and his family. Civil Lines Circle Officer Abhishek Tiwari confirmed that the cyber cell has been roped in to trace the WhatsApp number and uncover the sender's identity and motive — which could stem from personal rivalry, politics, or ideological discord. This isn't the first time Dr Sharma has faced threats. In 2020, he was involved in a Facebook controversy that led to the arrest of a former ABVP member. In 2022, his Facebook account was hacked, and cybercriminals attempted to extort money from his contacts. Dr Sharma has also publicly defended his brother Dr Kumar Vishwas — most recently in 2024, when the poet's remarks at the Meerut Festival drew criticism. Dr Sharma clarified that the comments were meant as humour and had been misinterpreted.

Professor Prashant Kumar, director of the Tilak School of Journalism and Mass Communication (TSJMC) at CCSU, said the course is designed to 'fuse India's ancient intellectual heritage with contemporary journalism education.' He cited Sanjay's narration of the Kurukshetra war to the blind king Dhritarashtra through divya drishti (divine vision) as a 'classical example of live reporting'. He added that students will also examine how 'Hanuman served as a vital communication link between Lord Rama and Goddess Sita during her captivity.' 'We have been learning Western methods so far despite the wealth of research and work in our own country,' Kumar said. 'Going forward, we will focus on our own traditions as no one understands our culture better than we do.' He pointed out that just as the Bhagavad Gita is taught in several countries for management education, 'ancient Indian communication practices, some of which are thousands of years old, remain relevant today and will continue to be so in the future.'

"This is not about replacing Western theories, but about giving equal space to our own communication traditions. Ancient systems of knowledge transmission, like Shruti, which was passed down orally, and Smriti, based on memory, laid the foundation for preserving and conveying information across generations," he said. Kumar added, "We have also developed a model on how food communicates: how different types of food evoke different emotions in the body. That, too, will be part of the syllabus. The course will cover cultural methods and history along with artificial intelligence."

Meerut: Following a court order, an FIR was registered against five persons, including the director and principal of a private college in Baghpat, for allegedly being involved in a case where a BCom student's marksheet and transfer certificate were used to issue a degree to another student. Baghpat SHO Dixit Tyagi said on Sunday: "The FIR was registered under BNS sections 344 (falsification of accounts) and 352 (intentional insult with the intent to provoke a breach of peace) after the court order. The college has refuted the allegations. We're investigating the matter." Priyadeep Singh, the complainant's brother, told TOI: "My sister enrolled in a private college in Baghpat -- affiliated with Chaudhary Charan Singh University , Meerut -- for the 2012–15 session after passing her Class 12 in 2012. We paid all required fees and were issued provisional admit cards and roll numbers for all three years. However, when we approached the college to collect her original degree and certificates, we were repeatedly misled by the management. Excuses such as administrative delays and the Covid-19 pandemic were cited for years." Singh said, "When we pressed them harder, we were mistreated and forced out of the college premises. We later found that the roll numbers given to my sister were actually registered in the name of a different student — Sohit Kumar — who had been issued the original marksheets and degree." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Google Brain Co-Founder Andrew Ng, Recommends: Read These 5 Books And Turn Your Life Around Blinkist: Andrew Ng's Reading List Undo The family thereafter approached the court.
