Renowned UPSC exam tutor Shubhra Ranjan addressed allegations on Saturday that she compared Lord Ram to Mughal emperor Akbar, clarifying that her intention was not to hurt anyone’s feelings. ‘My intention is not to hurt anyone’s feelings. If it has happened, then I apologize,’ she said.

However, some netizens supported the tutor. One user commented, ‘She explained that Akbar defined his own morality, whereas Shri Ram actually followed morality. What is the problem in analyzing Shri Ram as a king?’

‘Bhagwan Prabhu Sri Ram signifies the best of India’s spiritual heritage, civilizational ethos, and cultural history. We have the highest reverence and faith in Prabhu Sri Ram and the path shown by him. As an institution, we and all our members hold the highest reverence for all religions,’ the IAS tutor said.
