Amid Unacademy controversy, another online educator makes political statements

Days after Karan Sangwan was fired from Unacademy for making political comments, another video of an ed-tech teacher urging students to vote for educated people surfaced.

As Unacademy row simmers, an old video of an online teacher making political remarks has surfaced online. The teacher was seen telling students that educated people should enter Indian politics.
The teacher said it's likely that all parties will dwell on older issues and not vow to improve healthcare and education.
The teacher, who is being called &ldquo;Babita madam&rdquo;, works for the ed-tech platform ICS Coaching Centre.
&ldquo;When you are going to vote, remember that you will hand them the responsibility for five years with aspects such as jobs, recruitment, standards of schools and colleges,&rdquo; she said in the video.
Edtech firm Unacademy fired educator Karan Sangwan, who also urged his students to vote for educated candidates.

Karan Sangwan was reportedly fired for asking his students to vote for literate candidates in upcoming elections.

A recent decision of the educational platform Unacademy appears to be turning into a political storm.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal criticised Unacademy for sacking one of its teachers for sharing his "personal opinion" in the classroom.
Karan Sangwan was reportedly fired for asking his students to vote for literate candidates in upcoming elections, and not put uneducated persons in positions of power.
Kejriwal on August 17 asked whether it's a crime to ask people to vote for literate candidates, and added that illiterate representatives can't build a modern India of the 21st century.
