A few days back, a Delhi University (DU) student, Chitra Singh, has alleged harassment by a professor and pressure from college authorities, while other students reportedly gave statements against her, leading to a public dispute Chitra uploaded an Instagram reel where she shared her experience claiming she was mentally harassed by an unnamed professor over an internal issue. After she posted the video about the alleged incident, she claimed the Head of Department (HOD) pressured her to delete the post and that her admit card was withheld just before an exam. Her Instagram video created a sensation on social media with various news portals taking her side and sympathising with her, demanding justice. However, her classmates and some other students claimed that the story was one sided and that she made false allegations. One major counter-allegation is that Singh only attended three days out of a six-month semester. It is also alleged that she posted her classmates' private phone numbers online (doxxing) & defamed her. Students have claimed that the allegations by Chitra has taken a toll on the mental health of the professor. Many users claimed that the viral video itself is shaky, lacks context, and doesn't clearly show harassment, leading some to believe that Chitra's video is a social media drama without factual basis. Till date, no FIR has been filed against anyone. SWIPE TO SEE THE VIDEO UPLOADED BY CHITRA AS WELL AS THE STATEMENT OF THE STUDENTS AGAINST CHITRA. ALSO, DO LETS US KNOW YOUR OPINIONS ON THIS INCIDENT & SHARE TO SPREAD AWARENESS. #formenidia #delhiuniversity

IOBM student body unites to demand justice for a fellow female student who was reportedly expelled for complaining about alleged harassment she faced as the University responded by accusing her of being disrespectful to the staff. Universities in Pakistan for most part believe that students can be isolated, picked out and bullied and as there are no student unions who would care. However, the IOBM student body proved the administration wrong which as per reports has now led to firing of the transport staff member against whom the student had originally complained. It has also been reported that the University is now reconsidering the expulsion of the Student. The student must be reinstated at the earliest and inquiry should be launched against her hasty expulsion and allegations of harassment. This is not the first time a University has decided to act against alleged victims and whistleblowers. In 2021 a male student was expelled by IBA for publicly reporting the harassment of a female staff member by senior male staff members. The expulsion led to student protests resulting in the reinstatement of the whistle blower following my committee inquiries which found the male staff members guilty of harassment. Instead of knee jerk reactions to first complaints and then retreating under protest Universities must ensure proper mechanisms and transparency giving confidence to students to come forward instead of putting them under fear or coercive actions against them. The inquiries will not only embolden students but would also give fair hearing to those accused of harassment. Unfortunately even the premier institutes who claim to have comprehensive anti harassment policies in place fail to implement the same when the need arises and even try to rig inquiry committees or create hurdles for them. In 2014 when a professor at LUMs was accused of sexual harassment the first reaction of the administration and fellow faculty was to rush his defence and the LUMS inquiry committee also exonerated him and it was only later before the Ombudsman that the professor was found guilty resulting in the professor getting fired. Whether it is incidents of harassment, lack of facilities on campus, lack of maintenance of amenities and transport, issues of examination and other disciplinary measures the conduct of university administrations repeatedly remind us of the need for actual functioning Students Unions and Student representation within the university's governing bodies.
