In a shocking revelation, Anuradha Tiwari, known for her controversial stance against caste-based reservations, has been exposed for fraudulent activities involving the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Mandi. Tiwari allegedly promoted paid online courses, falsely claiming a collaboration with IIT Mandi, only to delete her posts after the institute publicly debunked her claims.

**Fake Claims of IIT Mandi Collaboration**  
Anuradha Tiwari, active on social media under the handle @talk2anuradha, advertised paid courses, particularly in artificial intelligence, asserting that IIT Mandi had approached her for a partnership. These claims were made to lure students and professionals, leveraging the institute’s reputable name to boost her credibility. However, posts on X revealed that no such collaboration existed, and IIT Mandi’s official handle (@iit__mandi) issued a public statement clarifying that Anuradha Tiwari was never associated with the institute.

*“IIT Mandi has no tie-up with Anuradha Tiwari for any courses. Her claims are false and misleading,” stated the official handle of IIT Mandi, as reported by users on X.*

**Public Backlash and Deleted Posts**  
Following IIT Mandi’s clarification, Tiwari faced intense backlash on social media. Users, including @lokeshbag67 and @JaiBhimMemes, credited individuals like @logical8441 for prompting IIT Mandi to investigate by emailing the institute’s director. The exposure led to widespread outrage, with many calling for legal action against Tiwari for fraud and damaging the institute’s reputation. In response, Tiwari reportedly deleted the tweet promoting the fraudulent courses, a move described by users as “running away” from accountability.

**Who is Anuradha Tiwari?**  
Anuradha Tiwari gained attention in August 2024 for her controversial posts on caste issues, particularly her opposition to the reservation system in India. According to a report by The Print, she has attracted a following among those who share her views, with some urging her to form a political party. However, her recent actions have shifted focus to her credibility, with accusations of exploiting IIT Mandi’s name for personal gain.

**Calls for Legal Action**  
Social media posts on X have demanded strict action against Tiwari, with users tagging @himachalpolice and calling for her arrest under relevant laws, including the SC/ST Act and fraud charges. The controversy has sparked debates about the misuse of institutional names for profit and the need for stricter regulations on online course promotions.
