However, the students gathered and obstructed the vehicle, refusing to allow it to leave the premises. The students demanded immediate action to address the security concerns and voiced their dissatisfaction with the existing safety measures, she said.

“Based on that we asked what their demands were…I spoke to them, went to the campus, and noticed the security lapses. We have told the Registrar to do a few things like placing the lighting system and security system at the back side and some other repair works which have to be done,” Priyadarshini said.
“Other than that, there are some administrative issues which have to be addressed at the VC and Registrar level. We told them to give it in writing. I think the VC will address those issues. We have ensured that patrolling will be there outside the campus because there is a metro station in which there will be floating of people regularly,” she added.

The police are investigating the security breach, aiming to identify any potential lapses in the existing security infrastructure. (Maxim News)
