Chandigarh, December 8

Prof Ashwani Kaul, chief of PU security, has maintained that patrolling by security personnel has been intensified on both campuses (Sector 14 and Sector 25).

“We have intensified security on the PU campus, especially after this incident. We are taking proper care to safeguard everyone here,” said Kaul.

After the incident, a six-member committee was constituted by the Vice-Chancellor for making the campus a safe place for students, faculties and visitors. It recommended a time-bound safety audit as also a ‘Safety Action Plan’.

However, nothing was put on record and little action was taken on the recommendations of the committee. Sources also maintained that the committee members had not held any meeting in recent times.

Meanwhile, a boundary wall has been built at the botanical garden in order to provide little relief to visitors.
