FIR filed against 14 students after Hansraj College festival clash
Hansraj College (Delhi University) is in the spotlight after an FIR was filed against 14 students following a violent clash during its annual festival earlier this month.
The complaint, made by Principal Rama Sharma, accuses the students of criminal trespass and causing harm under new laws.
Police had to step in to control the chaos as students and outsiders got involved.
Hansraj College suspends 30 students
In response to the incident, Hansraj suspended 30 students for violence and online defamation between April 20-25.
While Principal Rama Sharma said she is open to reviewing two show-cause notices if requested, there is no reconsideration for those named in the FIR.
Student Union President Abhijit Singh criticized these actions as targeting politically active students, a claim denied by college officials, who say discipline is key for a safe campus vibe.
