Controversy continues to surround Jadavpur University following the tragic death of a female student during a cultural programme. A student leader has been suspended from the Students' Federation of India (SFI) amid misconduct allegations.

On Wednesday, JU SFI unit president Russell Parvez confirmed the suspension of assistant secretary Soumik Mondal, citing internal resolutions. Mondal is accused of inappropriate conduct during a Santiniketan trip, pending investigation.

Meanwhile, the student's death, initially deemed a drowning, has prompted a murder investigation due to parental complaints. The SFI insists on a comprehensive inquiry and calls for increased campus security measures.
