Delhi Police Summons Congress MP Bimol Akoijam in JNU Sexual Harassment CasePreviousNext

Congress MP and former JNU professor Angomcha Bimol Akoijam has been summoned by Delhi Police for questioning in a sexual harassment case following an internal inquiry at JNU that led to his dismissal. At least 11 female students filed complaints alleging inappropriate conduct, which Akoijam denies, calling the process unfair. Supporters claim political targeting ahead of Manipur elections, while BJP demands his resignation. The case has sparked debate over procedural fairness and political implications amid ongoing ethnic tensions in Manipur.
