#WATCH | Delhi: Ramanujan College suspended NSUI office-bearer Anas Khan, following allegations that he attempted to induce female students to travel to Ahmedabad for a Diljit Dosanjh concert by offering them monetary benefits, gifts and other incentives. DUSU President Yash Dabas says, "We found out that Ramanujan College's NSUI unit vice president, Anas Khan created a WhatsApp group and added freshers. He then posted a message saying that based on the girls' profiles, they would be paid Rs 10,000-30,000 for a night and that they would be introduced to NRI men. This isn't the first time NSUI workers have been accused of sexual harassment. Former NSUI national president Fairoz Khan was also charged with sexual harassment by one of his workers. There are many such incidents. We suspect this could be a network connected to NRI men. So, we demand that the NIA investigate it and take the strictest possible action against Anas Khan and everyone involved. We are in touch with the students at Ramanujan College. Some of the girls have sent us screenshots showing how he is threatening them. We filed a Police complaint and also spoke to the principal of Ramanujan College. We don't just want him expelled from college; we want to put anyone who makes our sisters feel unsafe and causes them trauma behind bars." He also says, "NSUI generated a backdated resignation letter just to save itself. But they only do all this to cover up the issue. This is an old habit of NSUI and Congress, they never stand by their workers...They did something that has humiliated them across the country, and now they want to show off a backdated resignation letter to pretend like he doesn't work for them. But we actually saw how he was conducting panel voting for the entire NSUI panel." He further says, "Suspension isn't a proper step here. We believe someone who makes girls uncomfortable, or someone with NRI links, should be sent behind bars. These are mental Naxals who message our first-year students and offer to pay them for a night..."
