NCW Steps In On IIT Madras Sexual Harassment Case
The Sunday Guardian
|June 29, 2025
The National Commission for Women (NCW) has proactively intervened in the alleged sexual harassment of a 20-year-old woman intern at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT-M).
In a suo moto action—taken on its own accord—the NCW has called upon Tamil Nadu's Director General of Police (DGP) to carry out a fair, thorough, and time-bound investigation. The Commission has also insisted that the victim be provided with psychological support throughout the process.
According to Chennai police, the incident occurred around 9:20 PM on June 26 near the campus food court. The accused, 22-year-old food court employee Roushan Kumar, allegedly assaulted the intern by striking her with a stick and pulling her hair. Based on the victim's complaint and corroborating evidence, police arrested Kumar on June 27 and have since placed him in custody as investigations continue.
