The Punjab and Haryana High Court has instructed the Punjab Police to provide a status report regarding claims of sexual assault at Lovely Professional University. The court's directive follows a petition requesting a Central Bureau of Investigation inquiry into the unrest that occurred on the campus on September 26. Authorities must confirm whether the alleged rape, which originated from an unverified Reddit post, actually took place. Furthermore, the court ordered the police to outline the measures taken to investigate these claims. If the allegations are found to be baseless, the police are required to explain their actions regarding the removal of the social media content. Currently, the reports of sexual violence remain unconfirmed, and the court is seeking official verification to address the situation surrounding the campus disturbances.
