New Delhi: The Delhi High Court has asked the Jawaharlal Nehru University administration to sympathetically consider the plea of a student to allow her to complete her post-graduate course, which she had to abandon mid-way due to trauma after she was sexually harassed by another student of the institute.
Justice Rekha Palli asked the JNU administration to treat the student's plea as a representation and keep in mind the circumstances under which she was compelled to abandon her studies while considering her request to complete the course.
Advocate Harsh Ahuja, representing JNU, assured the court that the student's plea would be taken up as a representation at the next academic council meeting in July and that her request would be considered sympathetically.mpost
