Lady Shri Ram College Resumes Classes After Gangrape Sparks Security Measures and Student Protests
Following the alleged gangrape of a 17-year-old near Lady Shri Ram College (LSR) in Delhi, the college suspended physical classes for two days, shifting to online mode before resuming offline sessions. Students raised longstanding safety concerns about poorly lit routes and inadequate security around the campus. In response, Delhi Police increased patrolling, improved street lighting, and established a women-focused police booth. LSR formed a student security council to coordinate with police and address safety issues, while students held protests demanding permanent security measures.
