The woman’s comment on leaving India was slammed by netizens on social media
Netizens left remarks after the viral clip grabbed attention, take a look at some of them,
Ekta, nature and its beauty are hamare desh ki visheshta.
Why do people feel they’re so elite just because they went abroad for studies or job?
Top Global Institutes don’t have even 1% of the competition that top Indian Colleges have.
While I appreciate the fact that you’re in…

Netizens gave mixed responses to Mamedi’s tweet for supporting the woman. While some praised him for his words other users criticized him.
Thanks for saying this, Alan. She’s clearly excited to be living independently in a foreign country, and loves the *Canadian* scenery, sunrises and sunsets. It’s vile to make fun of someone for lack of proficiency in a foreign language.

So, she can join without any interview after her studies?

Yes. Ambitions are everything. Values, good ol’ hardworking and skills?
Nah. Ambitions and SM fame is all that matters.
The best CEOs hire on an impulse. And to prove a point. That’s leadership.
Kudos!— Jagan Mohan (@altvu) August 4, 2023
Alan Mamedi didn’t hold back and responded to the people who questioned him for offering Ekta a job
A well educated person is a person with high ambitions to learn new things. That’s all you need.
PS. Our CFO is a space physicist.— Alan Mamedi (@AlanMamedi) August 3, 2023
What does home country have to do with this? You think it’s easy to get into universities without excellent grades? Especially biotech? She clearly has high ambitions in life, and those are people I want to work with.
Also, to demonstrate that bullying is not OK, I will help her— Alan Mamedi (@AlanMamedi) August 3, 2023
