India Rape Cases Turn Focus Back Onto Women's Safety
- Lady Shri Ram College moved classes online for Wednesday, September 23, 2026, following the alleged rape of a 17-year-old at Aastha Kunj Park, located approximately 2 kilometres from the campus.
- Police arrested three suspects—Asif, an onion wholesaler; Hemanth, an advocate; and Mukesh, a BSc student—for the Monday rape, where they allegedly used 'legal terminology to intimidate' the victim and her friend.
- Tuesday's police encounter with a suspect occurred just 50 metres from the college's back gate, leaving students anxious; authorities confirmed all three men were arrested in connection with the attack.
- The LSR Students' Union held an emergency meeting Tuesday night to demand stronger security, as around 2,000 students living in local paying guest accommodations fear traveling alone after the incident.
- Principal Kanika L Ahuja said the college is coordinating with local police for increased patrolling and has strengthened CCTV surveillance to ensure student safety around the campus perimeter.
