Galgotias Robodog Row: Netizens Allege 'Scapegoating' of Neha Singh Amid Controversy

  • Galgotias University faced backlash after a 'robot dog' at an AI exhibition was identified as a commercial product, not university-developed.
  • Professor Neha Singh, representing the university, initially told DD News the robot was developed by Galgotias, sparking the controversy.
  • The university issued an apology, stating the robot was not its creation and attributing the misinformation to an 'ill-informed' and 'unauthorised' representative.
  • Social media users criticised the apology, alleging Neha Singh was being 'scapegoated' and questioning why a communications professor was at the stall if not to speak to media.
  • Neha Singh's LinkedIn update to 'Open to Work' further fueled speculation about professional repercussions, intensifying public sympathy and debate.
