The organisation claimed that the group of students called ‘BR Ambedkar as Beer Ambedkar’ and also played a song called ‘Don’t Touch me, touch me’ and made fun of him and Dalits. They also performed a controversial skit on ‘ What Makes You a Dalit When You Are D-Lit’. As the controversy snowballed, the college management apologised and the students were suspended.

As the video went viral on social media, Akshay Bansode of a Dalit organisation in Maharashtra filed a complaint at the Nanded police station. A case has been registered at Siddapur police station in Bengaluru too and investigation has been taken up under Jayanagar ACP Srinivas.
