MANUU Under Fire for Alleged Sexual Harassment Cover-Up

The Maulana Azad National Urdu University (MANUU) is in the spotlight as it allegedly suppresses a crucial Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) report on sexual harassment. Disturbingly, the university has refused to share the report with the complainant, raising urgent questions about transparency and accountability in handling such serious allegations.

Despite the complainant's attempts to escalate the matter to the Department of Higher Education and the Ministry of Women and Child Development, there has reportedly been no action taken. This inaction not only undermines the rights of the victim but also casts a shadow on the university's commitment to ensuring a safe educational environment.

The lack of response from authorities and the university itself begs the question: What steps will be taken to address this failure in duty? The silence from MANUU is deafening, and it is high time for them to answer for their alleged negligence. As reported by The Hindu, this controversy highlights a troubling trend of inaction against sexual harassment in institutions meant to protect students.
