Professor Neha Singh's LinkedIn profile has been deleted amid the robodog controversy sparked by a presentation at the India AI Impact Summit 2026, where a robot dog presented as a student innovation was identified as a commercially available model from Unitree Robotics.

A fresh twist has emerged in the robodog controversy linked to Galgotias University at the India AI Impact Summit 2026, with Professor Neha Singh's LinkedIn page now showing a "404 - This page doesn't exist" message. The development comes days after a video from the summit triggered widespread criticism online.

LinkedIn Page Goes Missing

Users attempting to access Professor Neha Singh's LinkedIn account are being redirected to an error page indicating that the profile is no longer available. While it remains unclear whether the account was deleted or deactivated, the move has added to speculation surrounding the ongoing inquiry.

Earlier, Galgotias University had clarified that Professor Neha Singh had not been suspended and that an internal investigation into the incident was in progress.

What Sparked the Robodog Row

The controversy began during a presentation at the India AI Impact Summit 2026, where Professor Neha introduced a robotic dog named "Orion" as a development from the university's Centre of Excellence. In a video that quickly circulated online, she described the machine as a campus innovation capable of surveillance and monitoring functions.

Why the issue escalated:

  • The robot was identified online as a commercially available model
  • It was traced to Chinese robotics company Unitree Robotics

Authorities reportedly asked the university to vacate its stall at Bharat Mandapam
Netizens pointed out that the robotic quadruped closely matched products sold by Unitree Robotics, leading to allegations that a foreign-made device had been showcased as an indigenous student project.

Fallout at the Summit

The incident reportedly drew sharp reactions from event authorities, with the university being asked to clear its stall at the venue over what was described as a "national embarrassment". The episode has since sparked debate about transparency, innovation claims and institutional accountability at major technology events.

While the university maintains that due process will be followed, the disappearance of the professor's LinkedIn profile has added another layer to an already high-profile controversy.
