The Patna University administration today ordered an inquiry into holding of lewd song and dance programme, during Saraswati Puja celebrations yesterday, at one of its constituent college.
The matter came to light today when a number of news channels flashed video footage showing skimpily clad dancers gyrating lasciviously to the tunes of bawdy numbers at the Saraswati Puja function held inside the premises of Bihar National College.
PU Vice Chancellor Ras Bihari Singh, who visited the college after taking note of the incident, told reporters "we are shocked by the incident. Permission was sought from authorities for holding a late night function in the name of Devi Jagran".
"The college principal has been directed to conduct a thorough inquiry into the incident and strict action will be taken against those found guilty of wrongdoing", the Vice Chancellor said.
The incident has tarnished image of Patna university which is celebrating its centenary celebrations.
