Delhi: BJP Mahila Morcha to take out protest march against Congress MP over JNU alleged sexual harassment case
The delegation said 11 JNU students filed complaints and asked for protection for the complainants as the case moves to the President and Parliament.
- On Thursday, a delegation of BJP women MPs met Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla to demand action against Congress MP Angomcha Bimol Akoijam, who was recently dismissed from Jawaharlal Nehru University over sexual harassment allegations involving 11 female students.
- JNU dismissed Akoijam on October 9 after its Internal Complaints Committee substantiated allegations of 'sex for marks' and found a 'recurring pattern of inappropriate personal interaction' with female students, leading to immediate termination of his services.
- Delhi Police registered an FIR on October 11 at Vasant Kunj North police station under BNS sections 75 and 79 based on a complaint by JNU's Chief Security Officer, and issued a notice directing Akoijam to appear for questioning on Thursday.
- Protesters organized demonstrations under the 'Nari Shakti Hunkar Andolan' banner, with BJP Mahila Morcha members demanding Akoijam's expulsion and arrest; Akoijam rejected the allegations, calling the dismissal a politically motivated 'witch hunt.'
- BJP delegations met President Droupadi Murmu and NCW Chairperson Vijaya Rahatkar, seeking referral to the Lok Sabha Ethics Committee and alleging the Congress is providing 'political protection' to the accused MP despite the dismissal and FIR.
