An alleged 22-year-old Muskaan Bawa who has apparently been accepted to the prestigious Harvard University to complete her Master's Degree has caused outrage online. In a video posted online, Muskaan says how she has a single mother and she is the youngest Indian accepted into Harvard. A claim that we have not been able to verify.?
?
However, she mentions how the fees of this course are 23 lakhs - which is quite expensive for her. So she is requesting people to donate for her education on the Ketto website.?
But here's why people are criticising this particular story. The girl Muskaan is not only asking for donations on the crowdfunding site Ketto but also is asking for donations on another crowdfunding site - Milaap. She is asking people to donate Rs 23 lakhs on Ketto and Rs 25 lakh on Milaap. Not just that, some users also pointed out how she portrays to be from Chandigarh in Ketto and from Dharamshala in Milaap.?
People are calling this a scam for this reason. But this is not where it ends. People have also found out that Muskaan is already a model with a modelling agency.?
Here is what people have to say about this entire episode. While many are asking if the girl is scamming people or if she is just a medium to get money.?
But after the backlash, the publication has come forward to settle the matter. They mentioned how they interviewed the girl and verified every document including the Harvard letter, fee structure and rent agreement. They also mentioned facts about the location.?
People however want to know why she can't just take a student loan
This ketto campaign has given some people bright ideas.
