Jawaharlal Nehru University Students Stop Dean’s Ambulance

New Delhi: The Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) administration on Monday said it would take “severe action” against some students who disallowed an ambulance carrying Dean of Students (DoS) to hospital after he fell ill during a meeting. A notice issued by the JNU Registrar alleged that some students disrupted the meeting of the Inter Hostel Administration (IHA) held at 10 a.m. at the Convention Centre of the University. They did not allow DoS Umesh Kadam to be taken to hospital after he fell sick and his blood pressure shot up. The university doctors were also not allowed to check on Kadam by this “unruly crowd of students”. The notice said that Kadam’s condition was getting worse and even his wife and two children pleaded with the students. After a lot of effort, the DoS was shifted to the ambulance, but the students again surrounded the vehicle and did not let it move towards the hospital. Kadam was then confined in a doctor’s office and the students surrounded the Health Centre. “This kind of behaviour by the students is highly condemnable and outrageous. The university administration is contemplating severe action against the students whose conduct today has been not only unbecoming but dangerous and shameful,” the notice said. (IANS)
