India To Discuss Rashmi Sawant's Racism, Cyber-Bullying Row With UK

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar assured that India would discuss matters over racism and cyber-bullying with the UK that caused Indian-origin Rashmi Samant's removal as Oxford University's Student Union President if required. Jaishankar acknowledged the issue after BJP MP Ashwini Vaishnav raised concerns over Samant being cyberbullied. Earlier, Samant had become the first Indian-born Student Union President but was removed within five days of appointment over alleged racist social-media posts.
