New Delhi: Allegations that women students at Delhi University’s Ramanujan College were being lured to Ahmedabad with money, gifts and other facilities have triggered a controversy. After alleged WhatsApp chats went viral on social media, the college administration suspended former NSUI leader Anas Khan until February 1, 2027. The matter is linked to singer Diljit Dosanjh’s concert scheduled in Ahmedabad on November 21.
The college’s proctorial committee issued the suspension order on November 6 after considering the complaint, the student concerned’s response and the findings of a preliminary inquiry. According to the order, Anas Khan will not be able to participate in regular academic and extracurricular activities during this period. However, he will be allowed to appear in university-scheduled examinations.
It is alleged that women students were offered travel, special tickets, gifts and payments ranging from Rs 10,000 to Rs 30,000 to attend the event. Some messages are also claimed to mention conditions related to the students’ age and physical appearance. Student organisations have demanded an impartial investigation. However, the viral messages and the allegations are yet to be independently verified.
After the controversy, the NSUI distanced itself from Anas Khan, saying he had been suspended during the Delhi University Students’ Union elections itself on allegations of indiscipline and anti-organisation activities. The organisation condemned the alleged conduct and demanded an impartial inquiry and strict action if he is found guilty.
Meanwhile, the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad has demanded a time-bound investigation into the matter and steps to ensure the safety of women students.
