Videos allegedly showing individuals looting shops and damaging property at Lovely Professional University (LPU) in Phagwara, Punjab, during violent protests have circulated on social media. The footage, which has not been independently verified, appears to depict people entering stores at the university's Uni Mall and taking food, gadgets, and other items.
One video features a voice saying, "free mein shopping, shopping done," as people move around inside a store. Another clip shows a person pointing towards items and claiming they could provide everything for free. The situation is serious, as a girl was reportedly assaulted/raped inside the LPU campus hostel, but this tragic incident appears to have been used as justification for looting and destruction, shifting the focus away from the actual tragedy.
Some online users claim that the protesters used the alleged sexual assault as an excuse for their destructive actions.
