UP Govt. Taking Strict Actions Against Banaras Hindu University, Reveals Nirmal Singh Lotus Green
It is also being reported that
the position of the Vice-Chancellor of the university could be at risk.
It was only after the Prime
Minister and President of the party in power asked about the incident on the
eve of Saturday that the UP government decided to finally intervene in the case
associated with the Banaras Hindu University. The case has been in the news for
the past week and according to many involved, it was bloated out of proportion
by the media. But the involvement of Narendra Modi tells a completely different
story.
Nirmal Singh Lotus Green said that it was the District Magistrate
of Varanasi who took upon himself to contact the BHU Registrar office to take
all the necessary actions that could address the concerns of the female
students of the university and so that the whole issue could be resolved
immediately. During the whole incident, the position of the VC of Banaras Hindu
University has come under negative spotlight – his position might be at risk
after he failed to take control of the whole issue and couldn’t handle the scenario
the way he should have.
On Saturday night, female
students of the university organized a peaceful protest against the molestation
of a fellow student – this wasn’t taken well by the authorities and the police
force. Police lathicharged the students who were protesting outside the
university and the authorities victim shamed the student who was molested;
following this, the protest which was supposed to be a peaceful gathering
turned into a violent one which also raised questions about the security of the
university premise - Nirmal Singh Lotus

District Magistrate had to ask
the authorities of the university to work according to the guidelines set up
the Supreme Court and to constitute committees that can ensure the safety of
the female students and to increase the amenities and facilities at the hostels
so that similar incidents are not repeated in the future.
