China: An Indian influencer has been criticised and labelled as "racist" after she was seen mocking Chinese locals. The act of interacting with locals and engaging in lighthearted conversation is generally considered harmless. However, in some cases, things can take a negative turn. 

Jaspreet Kaur Dyora, a popular influencer from India, is facing widespread criticism for ridiculing Chinese locals during her trip to China.

Social media users have expressed their disappointment in Kaur's comments, calling them offensive and disrespectful, despite understanding the importance of jokes. Many pointed out that there's a fine line between a joke and a disrespectful comment, and these actions defame Indians.

The video captures Kaur saying, “Jaise aap log corona de sakte ho world ko, toh kya mein aapko trauma de sakti hu? (Just like how you gave the world corona, can I give you trauma in exchange?)."

Kaur's comments in the video include asking a food vendor about the type of animal they slaughtered, joking about the quality of a bridge because it's "made in China," and asking people if they're wearing knock-off brands. She also asks them if they are from Sarojini Nagar, as they could be seen wearing a ''Gucci copy.''
