Indore's Holkar College principal Dr Anamika Jain has accused protestors of harassment and intimidation after she refused to provide funds for Ganeshotsav. Jain stated that students sought financial contributions for the festival, which she declined due to concerns over possible misuse. Faculty members organized an alternative celebration and later granted a DJ event at students' request.
However, ABVP and Karni Sena members allegedly clashed during the event. Jain alleged that protesters then staged a hunger strike outside the college and attempted to invade the campus to prevent her from leaving. She described the incident as humiliating and frightening, claiming videos of her defense were circulated online without context.
The principal emphasized the need to verify both the protesters' claims and the college's disciplinary records, as well as the concerns over campus safety and student discipline.
