In Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, two Kashmiri pharmacy students are alleging harassment, threats, and pressure to vacate their paying guest housing. The Jammu and Kashmir Students Association has petitioned Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav to intervene in the matter. The association has implored law enforcement and district officials to investigate the claims and safeguard the students' safety, ensuring their education is not disrupted.
The alleged harassment occurred at Shanti Homes Colony in Gandhi Nagar. In a letter to the Chief Minister dated August 18, the association disclosed that the two students were enrolled in pharmacy at an institute. Both were beneficiaries of the Prime Minister’s Special Scholarship Scheme (PMSSS). Nasir Khuehami, the association's national coordinator, stated that the students were initially supposed to receive hostel accommodation under the scheme.
However, the college lacked hostel facilities, forcing them to reside in a PG accommodation since last year.
