Tension erupted at Dyal Singh College on Monday after principal IS Bakshi suspended student union president Rohit Awana without specifying any reason. 

Furious, the students went on the rampage. Chairman of the College Governing Council Amitabh Sinha said classes of both morning and evening colleges had been suspended. He held the college principal responsible for the trouble.

“I asked the principal the reasons for Awana’s suspension. When he failed to give a satisfactory reply, I ordered an inquiry and asked him to go on leave. A probe is also being conducted into financial and administrative irregularities by a senior IPS officer,” Sinha said.

 Principal Bakshi said he received a mail by the governing body late in the evening, saying there were complaints of bungling. “I was asked to hand over the college keys to the evening college principal.”

The Deputy Commissioner of Police (South District), Vijay Singh, said they had not received any complaint so far. “It is solely an issue between the governing body and the teachers.”
