Women panel for action against prof for ‘harassing’ student
ROHTAK : Haryana State Women Commission chairperson Pratibha Suman has recommended action against professor JP Ma jr a of B PS Medical College, So ne pat, for allegedly harassing an MB BS student hailing from Kashmir.
A women commission team had visited the college after taking cognizance of media reports, and spoken to both sides .“We will take this investigation forward. More students have come forward alleging that the professor had been using vulgar language with them and threatening to ruin their annual performance reports,” Suman said.
The matter came to fore after a relative of the Kashmiri student emailed a complaint to the vicechancellor of Rohtak Health University, alleging that the professor had been harassing her. The complaint stated that the student had missed some classes due to unrest in the Valley last year, and was not being allowed to take an exam by the professor.
“She has been allowed to take exams of two other subjects. But prof Majra has an objection against her appearing in the exam of his subject. How can she fall short of attendance in just one subject?” Suman questioned, adding that she would submit a report to the government, recommending action against the professor.
Meanwhile, the college has enforced a media gag on its staff an disusing security personnel to oust media persons. Local mediapersons gave a memorandum to the sub-divisional magistrate alleging man handling by the college administration.
