In an age where social media holds immense power, a recent video from FMS College, Mohanlal Sukhadia University in Udaipur, Rajasthan, has captured the attention of many.

The incident unfolds
According to multiple reports, the student, identified as Kaif, entered his e-commerce class a remarkable 40 minutes late, casually making his way to his seat without acknowledging the professor. When confronted about his lateness, he reacted with indignation, escalating the situation by making aggressive threats. Eyewitness accounts indicate that his arrogance was evident, as he bragged about his father's financial influence, asserting, "If my father wanted, he could build four more colleges like this."
Upon further inquiry into his behaviour, the student dismissed concerns and stated that his father "used to sit with the collector," seemingly implying that such connections should absolve him of any responsibility for his actions. His exit from the classroom was equally dramatic, culminating in him spitting on the floor, a gesture that left many in disbelief.
