Delhi High Court Stays JNU Termination of Professor and MP Bimol Akoijam
The Delhi High Court has stayed Jawaharlal Nehru University's decision to terminate Congress MP and professor Angomcha Bimol Akoijam over sexual harassment allegations made by 11 female students. The university's internal committee recommended dismissal following an inquiry, which Akoijam denies, alleging procedural lapses and political targeting. An FIR has been registered, and Akoijam has sought anticipatory bail. The court has issued notice to JNU and scheduled the case for hearing in January 2027.
