Bathinda: Four employees of the Akal University here have been terminated following an incident where girls in one of the hostels in the campus were allegedly asked to strip by a warden.
Girls students at the varsity staged a protest here on Tuesday after the warden of the on-campus hostel allegedly asked them to strip in order to check who was menstruating and could have dumped a used sanitary pad in the toilet.
Two security guards and two wardens were terminated following the incident.
“We received a complaint from the students following which a committee was set up and four employees were immediately terminated,” said MS Johal, Dean, Academics, Akal University.
“We are trying to maintain a healthy relationship and two-way communication with the students so that such incidents do not occur again,” Johal added. (ANI)
