New Delhi, 20 January 2022

As per news report of The Indian Express, the PhD student said that the incident had taken place when she was taking a stroll inside the campus around 11.45 pm. An FIR has been registered but no one has been arrested so far. “These incidents point to the grave situation of lack of security on the campus, particularly for women, that is in many ways a direct result of the administrative incompetence and general misogyny of the JNU administration. With women faculty being systematically sidelined from administrative positions and the dissolution of the GSCASH by the ex but still acting-vice chancellor Prof Jagdish Kumar, there is a lack of representation leading to a skewed sense of male entitlement. The GSCASH was an active body of elected representatives from all sections of the university community that through its work helped create a sense of security for women on campus,” said the JNUTA.
