Report claims incident as a simple fight among students

Tuesday, 19 February 2013 | SR | Bhopal

 

Judicial committee that investigated the alleged eve-teasing case of Barkatullah University (BU) reported in the campus on January 3, in its report claimed that the incident was merely a clash between two groups of students.

The committee submitted its report on Friday to the BU administration but due to absence of Vice-Chancellor Nisha Dubey from the university, the report could not be opened.

BU Registrar Sanjay Tiwari said that the committee in its report mentioned that none of the four girl students were eve-teased by the Barkatullah University Institute of Technology (BUIT) students. All the witnesses of the incident, victims and accused in their individual statements refused of eve-teasing and stated the incident as a simple fight among students only. The main victim girl students also refused that they were eve-teased.

In their statements, the victim girls, victim Physics Department boy students, accused BUIT students, Physics Department Teachers and employees denied that the incident was eve-teasing. They all said that it was just a fight between two groups of students, Tiwari informed.

Tiwari further said just few people are raising voice claiming that it was eve-teasing, otherwise it is an established truth that students fought with each other. Meanwhile, during the annual function programme of Institute for Excellence in Higher Education (IEHE) on Monday, Higher Education Minister laxmikant Sharma, on the delay in action on the special committee’s report, said that BU Vice-Chancellor Nisha Dubey will only take action on the recommendations of the committee.

It is worth mentioning that Governor and BU Chancellor Ram Naresh Yadav has already declared that if any contradiction is found in the reports of the special committee formed by Higher Education Minister and the judicial committee formed by BU administration, then Governor himself will form a committee led by a retired high court justice to investigate the matter.
