UP Topper Prachi Nigam’s Heartbreaking Message to Trolls: ‘Wish I Didn’t Top

Online mocking over her facial hair thrust Prachi Nigam, the UP Board Class 10 topper with an astounding 98.50 percent, into the unexpected limelight. Prachi grinned and said she was disappointed that her attractiveness had garnered more attention on social media than her exceptional academic ranking, in an interview. She said, looking back, “I wouldn’t have gained this social media popularity and wouldn’t have faced such trolling for my appearance if I had scored just 1-2 marks less.” The teenager, who was honest about the frequent physical abuse she receives due to her appearance, sighed, saying, “It hurts, but people on social media will say what they want, and there’s no stopping them.”

Since then, she has received a lot of support on social media from those who are unable to comprehend the impact of the careless trolls who never hesitated to make fun of her beauty. One person shared a clip of her interview with the BBC and bemoaned that “we failed as a society for her.” One commenter on the widely shared photo said, “The best moment in her life is now a painful memory.” Social media can be incredibly nasty and poisonous. “The people who trolled her are the real losers, more so than society,” said one additional remark. People in our culture are full of losers who are willing to yell at anyone who achieves success, especially if she is a woman.

Another remark expressed sympathy, saying, “What a sad situation. Consider the psychological suffering she would have experienced. Fortunately, a fourth remark highlighted her fortitude in the face of trolls, stating, “It takes some next-level courage to stand against this level of hate from the world.” She’s far too capable of this. Prachi also talked about her future goals, saying that she is committed to following her ambitions of becoming an engineer. “I encouraged my daughter to ignore the trolls, and to my surprise, many social media users supported her after a few days,” said Mamta Nigam, the mother of the victim, about how she helped her daughter once the trolling started.

Chandra Prakash Nigam, Prachi’s father, expressed his family’s delight in their daughter’s accomplishment while expressing sadness about the teasing. “People in society come in a variety of forms. Naturally, we were upset, but we are also happy for our daughter for receiving the best grades, he added. Mrs. Nigam said that she had intended to consult a doctor about her daughter’s care, but the trolling occurred before they could do so. “The government will now handle her treatment,” she continued.

Protesters Replace American Flag with Palestinian Flag at Harvard University: Caught on Camera

This week, student protestors at Harvard University caused a stir when they hoisted Palestinian flags atop the famous John Harvard monument, which bears the name of the esteemed US university. In light of Israel’s military assault in Gaza, the conduct was perceived as a provocative show of support for Palestine at the elite university.

The incident on Saturday started when a group of demonstrators raised their flags over the John Harvard monument, which is normally where the American flag or the flags of foreign dignitaries visiting the country are flown. Chants of “Free, free Palestine” and “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” resonated over the yard as the flags waved in the air, according to The Harvard Crimson.

The demonstrators are greatly concerned about the possibility of disciplinary action, which might involve the withholding of degrees, especially as Harvard’s graduation festivities approach. The campsite, which got underway earlier this week, has grown to be a main center of protest, with hundreds of students among those who could suffer consequences for carrying on with the demonstration.

‘WAVE OF DEMONSTRATIONS’

At Columbia University in New York, the protest wave started, but it has since quickly expanded across the nation. Many campuses have seen tranquility, but the number of demonstrators being held in detention is rapidly increasing. These are located at Washington University in St. Louis (80), Arizona State University (72), Indiana University (23), and Northeastern University (100) in Boston.

Following around 275 arrests by police at four different schools over the weekend, the US federal government stressed on Sunday that pro-Palestinian rallies, which have shook colleges, should be peaceful, even as demonstrations continued across college campuses.

According to National Security Council spokesman John Kirby, “We certainly respect the right to peaceful protests,” ABC was informed. However, he said, “We unequivocally condemn all hate speech, threats of violence, and the anti-Semitic language that we have recently heard.”
