Kolkata metro to be extended till Hooghly's Chuchura? Here's what Railway minister says
A video showing FIITJEE Chairman D.K. Goel using highly offensive language during a virtual meeting with company employees has gone viral. The incident reportedly occurred during a discussion about the company’s financial issues, particularly surrounding a Rs 142 crore investment in Edfora, an EdTech company, amid challenging financial conditions. The question raised by a participant regarding this investment led to Goel’s verbal outburst.
In the video, Goel is heard angrily shouting “Kutte ki aulad” (son of a dog) and “Madch*d”. Goel’s response escalates with further personal attacks, including “Teri maa ki ct”** (your mother’s private parts) and “Go ask your mother who your father is”. As the discussion continued, Goel aggressively demanded that the person prove their claims about the investment, stating “Agar baap ki aulad ho to prove kardo” (if you are your father’s son, prove it). The exchange intensified when the participant mentioned that the investment details were available in the public domain, prompting Goel to react with further expletives, saying “Public domain mein bol raha hai b****d dekh” (look at this bastard speaking about public domain).
Goel also threatened to have the individual removed from the city, shouting “Who is this bloody person? Throw him out of Mumbai”. Another participant attempted to intervene, urging Goel to remain calm, but the Chairman dismissed the suggestion, continuing his tirade and stating, “I don’t want to see him in FIITJEE”.
The incident has raised concerns about ongoing issues within FIITJEE, particularly regarding employee grievances about delayed salaries. Reports indicate that employees have not received their salaries since February 2023, with some being instructed to take loans to manage their personal expenses until the company’s financial situation improved. Additionally, when employees raised concerns about salary delays or considered leaving the company, they were reportedly threatened with financial penalties, with accusations that they had caused damage to the company.
