Delhi College Bars Students' Union from Organising Events After Fest Clashes

Shaheed Bhagat Singh College (SBSC) under Delhi University has barred its Students' Union from independently organising events, including annual fests and freshers' programmes, following clashes during the April 6 cultural fest. The college administration now mandates that such events be managed by the Cultural and Functions Committees, comprising teachers and students, to ensure discipline and oversight. Some students expressed concerns that these committees limit student influence and restrict the union's freedom to organise activities.
