Gargi College students allege group of men barged inside campus, groped and harassed them

Speaking about the incident on Thursday, a second-year student told ANI, “Taking advantage of the crowd, the men followed girls everywhere and groped them. They made girls uncomfortable and showed us that they have control over us. They derived pleasure from it.”

Another student claimed that she could see this happening at every corner in the campus.

“Men were molesting girls and smoking on the campus which is strictly prohibited. Bouncers were not doing anything as they were just watching the show,” she said.

Talking about the response of the college administration, a student said, “I don’t think the administration has taken action regarding this so far.” (ANI)
