Protest against harassment of Dalit
Staff Reporter
NEW DELHI: The Jawaharlal Nehru University Students’ Union has protested against the “systematic harassment and victimisation” of a woman Dalit research scholar on the campus.
The students’ union has alleged that a M. Phil./ Ph. D. student in the School of Life Sciences had to discontinue her studies at JNU due to harassment and take admission in a Ph. D. programme at IIT-Roorkee.
“The student who was a qualified scholar of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research-Junior Research Fellowship had completed three semesters in her M. Phil./Ph. D. enrolment at JNU. Since in the coursework she had the mandatory points, she opted for a direct Ph.D. But since then, she had faced numerous hurdles in her lab experiments and passing of synopsis towards confirmation in the Ph. D. programme,” claimed JNUSU president Sandeep Singh in a statement on Tuesday. “Also, her Council of Scientific and Industrial Research fellowship remains discontinued since April 2007, which is impeding the continuation and transfer of the fellowship in her new enrolment.”
