On Wednesday, a Vishwakarma Puja event at Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University in Lucknow took a chaotic turn when two student groups engaged in a violent clash. The incident resulted in serious injuries for two students from the Dalit group.
In response, the injured students, along with their peers, gathered outside the administrative building and demanded immediate action against those responsible. Despite the university proctor's attempt to intervene, tensions continued to rise as the students chanted slogans and security forces were called in for assistance.
As the situation escalated, the students grew frustrated with the Vice-Chancellor's absence and were joined by supporters from NSUI and SFI. Breaking through barricades, they stormed into the administrative building and forcefully entered the VC's meeting room, causing damage to doors in the process.
Security personnel were eventually able to escort the VC to safety, but not before heated arguments erupted between students and university officials, including the registrar.
In the midst of the chaos, a tragic incident involving a 7-year-old boy being swept away in a drain in Hussainganj, Uttar Pradesh, was also being closely watched.
The protesting students have declared that they will not end their sit-in until strict disciplinary action is taken against the students responsible for the violence. They are determined to hold those accountable for their actions and are demanding justice from the university.
