IAS Coach Quotes 'Scriptures' Comparing Goddess Sita With 'Ghee Contaminated by Dog', Faces Backlash
Quoting a Sanskrit author, a teacher coaching youth to become IAS officers and helping them prepare for UPSC Civil Services Exam, compared Hindu Goddess Sita with ghee contaminated by a dog. Claiming that a Sanskrit author had quoted Ram as saying, “I did not fight this war for you but for the respect of my lineage. Like ghee licked by a dog is not fit for eating, you Sita, are not fit for me.”
The teacher, however, goes on to explain that these verses could not have been said by Ram but are the author’s way of expression which did not get a seat in Tusi Das’ version of Ramayana which is widely popular today. Yet, his way of teaching is not going well with students, Hindu religion followers, and many politicians who are trending #BanDrishtiIAS on Twitter.

Many people claim that there is no source of any such dialogue in any version of Ramayana. As per scriptures, Sita and Ram were separated after allegations against Sita after she was abducted by Ravana, however, the stated dialogue by the teacher is not quoted in any version of Ramayana, argued some people.
There is no where mentioned in any of the authentic Ramayan (Valmiki Ramayan, Anand Ramayan, Ramcharitmanas or Adhyatma Ramayan) that Bhagwan Ram compared Mata Sita with Dog!Being an IAS you are behaving like Chirkut, be ready to face an legal action #BanDrishtiIAS pic.twitter.com/50Bj9G8kzV
