Educator 'Khan Sir' Moves Patna High Court to Quash FIR Following Coaching Institute Attack
YouTuber and educator Faisal Khan, known as 'Khan Sir', filed a petition in Patna High Court on June 10 to quash an FIR lodged against him following a violent attack on his coaching institute on June 2. The FIR was registered after his bodyguards fired in the air during an assault by approximately 20 people who vandalized the premises; a rival coaching institute owner and two others were arrested for the attack. The High Court granted the Bihar government four weeks to respond, while a local court had previously stayed Khan's arrest and scheduled the next hearing for June 20.
Educator Faisal Khan, popularly known as 'Khan Sir', approached the Patna High Court on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, seeking to quash an FIR filed against him by Patna police. The case stems from a June 2 incident in which approximately 20 people attacked his coaching institute, Khan Global Studies (KGS), vandalizing the premises and assaulting a security guard. During the attack, Khan's two bodyguards, Deepak Kumar and Talebar Singh, fired shots in the air, which were captured on video and went viral on social media. An FIR was subsequently lodged against Khan under Sections 109 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and Sections 25(9), 27, and 35 of the Arms Act. The bodyguards were arrested and their weapons seized for forensic examination; they claimed they fired on Khan's instructions. A rival coaching institute owner, Raushan Anand, along with two others, were arrested for the attack and their bail plea was rejected. The High Court granted four weeks for the Bihar government to file its response, while Khan also sought orders to reopen his closed institute. A local court had previously stayed his arrest until June 20.

The building, constructed in 1965, is experiencing serious deterioration including 16 major leaks in the past year alone and risks of catastrophic system failure. The challenge reflects a broader political difficulty: Congress has historically been reluctant to fund its own infrastructure, with legislative branch spending averaging just 0.15 percent of total budget authority since 1976.
Study Finds College Faculty Lean Significantly Left, Raising Questions About Campus Ideological Diversity
A study commissioned by the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression found that college faculty donors have an average ideology score of -1.02, comparable to Senator Bernie Sanders's -1.14, indicating strong leftward lean among faculty. The research cross-referenced over 100,000 faculty members with campaign contribution data, and separate surveys found only 20% of faculty believed a conservative scholar would be welcome in their department. The findings raise concerns about ideological diversity in higher education and its potential influence on student political attitudes.
