Ludhiana/Srinagar:, Feb. 25 -- The vice chancellor of a Ludhiana-based private university resigned on Tuesday after Kashmir students accused him of hurling abuses during an argument over meal arrangements for Ramzan. A video purportedly showing CT university VC Nitin Tandon "using abusive language" and "threatening" students is doing the rounds on social media. "The vice chancellor has sent his resignation as the students had demanded," said dean students' welfare, CT university, Davinder Singh. Tandon's resignation comes after People's Democratic Party leader Iltija Mufta and the Jammu and Kashmir Students Association sought the intervention of Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann, alleging that Kashmiri Muslim students at CT University were facing harassment and eviction threats after requesting Ramzan meal arrangements. The association claimed it has received complaints from boarders who alleged they were threatened with hostel eviction and cancellation of admissions for requesting sehri (pre-dawn meal) and iftar (fast-breaking meal) timings at the university mess. "Dear @BhagwantMann ji do you endorse the vice chancellor of CT University Punjab abusing & bullying Kashmiri Muslim students only because they requested food for Iftari & Sehri since it's Ramzan? Shocked that assaulting Kashmiris has been normalised even in a state like Punjab. We request strict action against the vice chancellor. Anything else is mere lip service. @PunjabPoliceInd @DGPPunjabPolice @OfficialDPRPP," Iltija wrote on her X handle while sharing the video. Muslim students at the private varsity alleged that they were not provided food for Iftar this year. The students said earlier the university administration used to provide them meals to break fast. "We asked the university administration that we need food to break our fast. But after five days of wait there was no action. So, in protest, we locked the mess where we used to have iftar, not the common mess where other students eat," said Owais, a D Pharma student from Anantnag. Owais said university officials, including VC Tandon reached there and an argument ensued. "The VC verbally abused us and asked the officials to cancel our admission and throw us out of the campus," alleged Owais....
