Protesting students have demanded V-C’s ouster after he allegedly inspected girls' hostel rooms without prior notice or consent. The university has set up a panel to ‘mediate the dispute’.
Panel has asked National Commission for Women to draft fresh amendments to 1990 Act and recommended giving the body ‘additional powers to ensure accountability of police towards them’.
NCW chief Rekha Sharma said she took suo motu cognisance of the incident Friday after the video surfaced and sought explanation from authorities on the matter.
The National Commission for Women said it had come across several media reports about girls being auctioned off to settle disputes over loan repayments in Bhilwara.
Rekha Sharma received flak on Twitter after NCW said she discussed ‘rise in love jihad cases’ with Maharashtra Governor. She locked account after users dug up old controversial tweets.
National Commission for Women says Article 370 barred it from acting on complaints lodged by J&K women. It only forwarded such matter to the state body.
