Drunk Men Allegedly Scaled Delhi Women’s College Wall, Harassed Students

Students at Delhi University`s Indraprastha College for Women alleged that a few guys scaled the institute’s boundary partitions at some stage in a fest on Tuesday and “pressured numerous college students”. Police have registered an FIR below sections 337 (inflicting harm with the aid of using act endangering existence or private protection of others) and and 188 (disobedience to an order lawfully promulgated with the aid of using a public servant) of the Indian Penal Code and arrested seven people, they stated.

An All India Students’ Association (AISA) activist alleged that the guys had been heard chanting “Miranda, IP dono hamara (Miranda House and Indraprastha College each are ours)” and “Miranda nahi chhoda to IP bhi nahi chhodenge (We did not go away Miranda, we might not go away IP either)”.

In October, a few college students of Delhi University’s all-girls Miranda House College alleged that numerous guys scaled the boundary partitions and the gates at some stage in an open Diwali fest on campus and indulged in “cat-calling and sexist sloganeering”.

The AISA’s Delhi University unit secretary and previous Indraprastha College for Women (IPCW) scholar Anjali shared purported images and motion pictures of the incident. In the photo, 4 guys are visible status close to the IPCW boundary wall even as any other is scaling the wall. The video clip indicates the police asking the university college students to vacate the premises.

“Today, IPCW’s fest turned into going whilst inebriated guys climbed the partitions, forcefully entered the campus and pressured gender minorities. Men had been chanting ‘Miranda IP dono hamara’, ‘Miranda nahi chhoda to IP bhi nahi chhodenge’,” Anjali tweeted.

Another scholar alleged, “Miscreants entered the IPCW fest nowadays and pressured numerous girls college students, injuring one. Delhi Police has surely escorted the goons out. We call for their instant arrest.” The police stated there has been an extra crowd of college students close to the university gate at some stage in the fest. Around three pm, a few overzealous college students began out to go into the university in a hurry. In the process, there has been heavy stress at the gates and a few college students fell down, they stated.
