Indian professor goes viral for plan to fast on Independence Day
While most celebrate Independence Day with flag hoisting and festivities, a 77-yr-old retired IIT Delhi professor chose a different path. Professor Tripathi, a Gandhian at heart, will observe a day-long fast on August 15 in solidarity with the starving people of Gaza. A proud fan has mentioned that '(Professor Tripathi) is alone powerful than all leaders in India.'
