New Indian Express  

PUDUCHERRY: The AIADMK and the All India Progressive Women’s Association have called for a judicial probe into the alleged sexual assault of a female student which took place inside the Puducherry Technological University campus on January 11. Criticising the university administration and police for delayed action, AIADMK State Secretary A Anbalagan questioned the circumstances revolving the incident, asking whether the female student was sexually harassed or attacked due to another issue. Anbalagan highlighted that although the student received medical treatment on the day of the incident, an official police case was registered only on January 14, sparking doubts about the administration’s transparency and intent. State Secretary of the All India Progressive Women’s Association, R Vijaya urged the L-G to appoint a sitting High Court judge to lead an inquiry.
