The derogatory term objectifying and shaming Russian women as "Russian" has been casually passed around the Internet. The youth think it's funny but no, it is not, instead it is demeaning. One such incident from Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh has come to light when a video surfaced on the internet. A boy was roaming around on a college campus with a placard that reads "Muzaffarnagar me Russian Kaha Milegi?" translating as "Where can I get a Russian in Muzaffarnagar?"
The shameful incident took place in Shri Ram College of Muzaffarnagar. The video was shared by a Twitter user Priya Singh dispising the boy's behaviour and questioning the youth and students of the nation. While another Twitter user Arvind Chauhan confirmed the boy's arrest by police as he quoted the tweet along with sharing the videos calling the boy "numbskull for a few likes on reels."
For likes on reels, this numbskull was roaming with a placard that read, "Need #Russian (girl) in #Muzaffarnagar" outside girls' college. Now local police have arrested him.
