Nine IT-BHU students booked for violence

IT-BHUAs many as nine students of B.Tech (final year) in the Institute of Technology (IT), Banaras Hindu University, were accused of indulging in violence and sent to the Lanka police station.
According to Prof SN Upadhyaya, director, IT-BHU, students living in one of the hostels of the university indulged in violence on Thursday night. Later, the members of the Proctorial Board handed them over to the police after their identification. “The university would take appropriate disciplinary action against them if they are found guilty of committing violence within hotel premises,” he assured.
The students were about to leave for their homes in a couple of days and were celebrating their last few moments at IT-BHU with liquor and snacks. Some old rivalry lead to this incident. Probably they thought to sort it out before they left BHU.
Meanwhile, the Lanka police have lodged an FIR against the accused students. A number of students are also believed to have received injuries in the incident.
It might be mentioned here that the students had taken their final examinations this year and most of them had been selected in the campus interview held recently at the university. But after the incident all nine of them have lost their offers.
