Around 2.30 am on Sunday, the girls were checked into several hospitals. One of the girls’ conditions is reportedly in critical condition. The kid who posted the video on social media and the girl who recorded it are both from Himachal Pradesh.
The Chandigarh University’s female students said that they were being under pressure from the institution’s administration to keep the situation quiet. Students assert that they complained to the college administration, but no action has been taken.
