The Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) administration appealed to the hostel residents on Saturday not to get "influenced by a few student leaders trying to disrupt the functioning of the institution during the lockdown".

Meanwhile, the students' union claimed that a security guard misbehaved with female students and urged the National Commission For Women (NCW) and Delhi Commission For Women (DCW) to look into the matter.

In an appeal to the students, JNU Registrar Pramod Kumar said, "All the hostel residents are strongly advised to remain alert and not get influenced by persistent efforts by a few student leaders to somehow disrupt the smooth functioning of the university in the midst of the lockdown."
