Unsafe campus: Students of IIT-Madras protesting on Monday against the institution’s inaction over a complaint from a student about a technical staff. | Photo Credit: M_Karunakaranmore-inA group of students of the Indian Institute of Technology-Madras staged a ‘hug day’ protest in front of the office of the Dean of Students on Monday. They were protesting against the institution’s inaction over a complaint from a student about a technical staff. Last Tuesday, a technical staff in-charge of a laboratory on the campus had photographed a girl student when she hugged a boy. The students later lodged a complaint with the Dean of Students and the Director of the institute, who they claimed did not take action against the staff.
