A 24-year-old MBA student from Tripura was fatally stabbed in Dehradun after an incident involving alleged racial abuse. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal condemned the killing as a "shame on the system" and called for a national law against racism and hate crimes. A Public Interest Litigation has been filed in the Supreme Court seeking directions to address racial discrimination and violence against citizens from India's northeastern states, advocating for racial slurs to be recognized as hate speech.
