What statement did the company give?

Roman Saini said in his statement that a code of conduct has been set for all teachers working in the academy, in which everyone is appealed to be fair. Classroom is not a place where you put forth your personal opinion and influence the thinking of the students. This is the reason why we have to disassociate ourselves from Karan Sangwan.

Karan Sangwan has said in the clarification of this whole controversy that for a few days a video of mine has gone viral, in which a statement has been made an issue. Because of this I have come into controversy and many of my students have also been targeted, it has affected me as well.

Rhetoric also intensified in the case of removal of Karan Sangwan by Unacademy, from political people to people from other fields questioned the company's decision. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said whether it is a crime to appeal people to vote for educated people. If someone is illiterate, I respect him. But the people's representative should be educated, because this is the time of science and technology and in such a situation, your people's representative should be prepared.
