Student organization ABVP staged a protest at Jawaharlal Nehru University demanding action against Congress MP Bimol Akhiz, accused in a sexual harassment complaint by a student.
Student activists from the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) gathered at Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi to protest an alleged sexual harassment case involving Congress MP Bimol Akhiz. The demonstration was organised after a student lodged a complaint naming the MP as the alleged perpetrator.
The ABVP rally called for a swift and impartial investigation, urging university authorities and law‑enforcement agencies to ensure the safety of students and hold the accused accountable. No details of the complaint were released, and the MP has not publicly responded to the allegations.
The protest underscores growing concerns on Indian campuses about sexual misconduct and the political dimensions that often accompany such cases. ABVP members held placards and chanted slogans demanding justice, while university officials monitored the gathering to maintain order.
