Students hit streets in Namrup

Hundreds of students in Namrup hit the streets alleging police failure to nab the youth who misbehaved with a college girl a week ago. 

Organized by the Namrup local AASU, the protest got huge response on Monday where the participants shouted slogans against the failure of the authority.

The students then submitted a memorandum to the Deputy Commissioner through the Naharkotiya circle officer raising the demand.

Protest erupted on August 31 when a biker misbehaved with a college girl as she was on her way back to the home. The college girl  lodged a complaint on the sane day. But thr biker was yet to be held.
