‘Go Back To India’: Woman Faces Racist Attack On Dublin Street, Shares Video Online — Watch 

<p>Swati Verma, an Indian woman living in Ireland, has shared a deeply unsettling video on Instagram capturing a racist verbal attack she endured on the streets of Dublin. The incident occurred around 9 p.m. outside her gym, when a woman&mdash;identified by a Dublin City University (DCU) badge&mdash;approached her and began hurling xenophobic remarks, including telling her to &ldquo;go back to India&rdquo; and questioning her right to live in the country.</p>
<h3>’Heartbroken’: Indian Woman Faces Racist Attack On Dublin Street</h3>
<p>Verma described the experience as &ldquo;shaken&rdquo; and &ldquo;heartbroken,&rdquo; writing, &ldquo;I never thought I&rsquo;d have to justify my existence on a street I walk every day.&rdquo; She initially froze during the confrontation but quickly realized that silence only enables hate. &ldquo;I recorded, I reported, and I&rsquo;m sharing&mdash;because racism, intimidation, and hate still walk freely on our streets, and this shouldn&rsquo;t happen to anyone,&rdquo; she said.</p>
