A day after the Twitterati went berserk over the issue, veteran Indian wrestler Yogeshwar Dutt has further trolled Gurmehar.


Here's what he tweeted on Tuesday:



Gurmehar, who is the daughter of martyr Captain Mandeep Singh, took the Internet by storm when she posted a video in May last year where held a placard that read, “Pakistan did not kill my dad, war killed him.”


The controversy comes days after violence on the Ramjas College campus when students and teachers clashed with Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) members after the latter disrupted a session of the two-day seminar on Bastar over the participation of Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) students, Umar Khalid and Shehla Rashid.


Gurmehar also changed her Facebook profile picture holding a placard which read "I am a student from Delhi University. I am not afraid of ABVP. I am not alone. Every student of India is with me. #StudentsAgainstABVP".


In a Facebook post which has gone viral, Gurmehar wrote, "The brutal attack on innocent students by ABVP is very disturbing and should be stopped. It was not an attack on protestors, but an attack on every notion of democracy that is held dear in ever Indian's heart. It is an attack on ideals, morals, freedom and rights of every person born to this nation. The stones that you pelt hit our bodies, but fail to bruise our ideas.
