JNU Students Accuse Professor of Sexual Harassment; ICC Investigation UnderwayPreviousNext

At least 10 students at Jawaharlal Nehru University have accused a professor of sexual harassment, alleging inappropriate sexual advances and lewd remarks during classes and gatherings at his on-campus residence. The university's Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) is investigating the complaints, which were filed about a month ago. Several senior students have also come forward with similar allegations. The JNU administration and Vice-Chancellor have not commented, and no police complaint has been filed so far. The professor has denied the allegations.
