High Court reinstates gay AMU professor

The Allahabad High Court on Thursday revoked the decision of the Aligarh Muslim University to suspend a gay professor who was filmed having sex with a man in his official residence on the campus.

The Press Trust of India reported on Apr 1, 2010:

The Allahabad High Court today stayed the suspension of a Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) professor against whom the disciplinary action was taken following reports of his involvement in a homosexual relationship

A division bench comprising Justice Sunil Ambawani and Justice Kashi Nath Pandey passed the order on a writ petition filed by professor Srinivas Ramchandra Sirasi challenging the suspension order. 

On February 19, AMU vice chancellor P K Abdul Azis had suspended Sirasi, a reader in the Department of Modern Indian Languages, and asked him to vacate the varsity premises accusing him of "misconduct" following reports of his alleged homosexual relation with a rickshaw-puller, which had led to a furore in the minority educational institution. 

In his petition, Sirasi had refuted the charges levelled against him. 

The court, while granting relief to the petitioner, asked the university authorities to file their counter-affidavits.

Note their constant mention of "rickshaw puller".

It wasn't just about sex with a man. It was about sex with a rickshaw puller, the lowest of the low.

Making intimate body contact with a sub-human species -- a rickshaw puller, for Pete's sake -- that no respectable person would even look at: now, THAT's outrageous.

ALIGARH: Aligarh Muslim University professor, Dr Shrinivas Ramchandra Siras, who was suspended after some students set up cameras to catch him having consensual sex with a rickshaw-puller in his campus home, died in mysterious circumstances on Wednesday. Police have not ruled out suicide.

Professor Siras, reader and chairman of Modern Indian Languages at AMU, was on the verge of retirement when he was suspended. He later won a case in Allahabad High Court and was rstored as professor in the varsity.

@2; omg, that's very sad, the poor guy. Just when he was winning his case. The university officials who were about to have to defend the action and answer embarrassing questions about corruption will no doubt be very relieved.
