In a troubling incident at Jawaharlal Nehru University, the Birsa Ambedkar Phule Students' Association (BAPSA) has brought forth allegations of sexual harassment against a delivery executive. According to BAPSA, a female student was subjected to harassment on Monday night, raising urgent concerns about campus safety.
BAPSA claims that, despite the gravity of the situation, the university administration is yet to take action. The group criticized the lack of security measures, noting that the absence of mandatory registration for delivery personnel and the inadequacies in security staff training exacerbated the situation.
Beyond this incident, BAPSA reported that casteist and misogynist slurs were discovered at the Dr. B R Ambedkar Central Library. These revelations highlight a broader sense of insecurity among the student body, prompting calls for administrative intervention and campus reforms.
