Delhi University's Ramanujan College has suspended a third-year student, Anas Khan, over allegations that he offered female students, including freshers, money, gifts and other incentives to travel to Ahmedabad for a Diljit Dosanjh concert.

Khan, a BA (Hons) Hindi student in Semester V, will remain suspended until February 1, 2027, under an order issued by the college on November 6. The decision followed an examination of the complaint, Khan's response and findings of a preliminary inquiry by the college's proctorial committee.

The suspension order said the complaint concerned allegations that Khan had tried to persuade female students to travel to Ahmedabad for the concert by offering monetary benefits, gifts and other incentives.

During the suspension period, he will not be allowed to take part in regular academic or extracurricular activities at the college. However, given that he is in his third year, the college has permitted him to sit for scheduled university examinations.

He may also visit the campus to complete pending internal assessments or assignments, but only with prior permission from the proctor.

The college has asked Khan to submit a written undertaking acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations and assuring that such conduct or indiscipline will not be repeated. It has warned that any similar incident or involvement in another serious disciplinary violation could lead to stricter action, including termination from the college, after following due process.

NSUI says Anas Khan was suspended during DUSU election period

Khan was associated with the National Students' Union of India (NSUI) and had contested the Delhi University Students' Union (DUSU) elections as a candidate backed by the organisation.

However, NSUI has distanced itself from him, saying it had suspended Khan on September 12, during the DUSU election period, over alleged anti-organisational activities and indiscipline.

In its statement issued on Tuesday, the student organisation condemned the alleged misconduct and said Khan was no longer associated with or permitted to participate in its activities.

The suspension communication issued by NSUI cited his alleged involvement in anti-party activities during the students' union election as the reason for the action.

ABVP seeks probe into alleged messages involving female freshers

The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) has demanded a fair, transparent and time-bound investigation into the allegations, along with strict legal action if they are established.

In its statement, ABVP referred to alleged WhatsApp messages circulating on social media. It claimed the messages suggested that Khan had offered to take female freshers, reportedly including students aged 17-18, to concerts and arrange travel and other facilities in exchange for spending time with certain men and facilitating financial benefits.

The organisation said the authenticity of the messages and the allegations must be established through an investigation.

The allegations against Khan have not yet been established. He could not be contacted immediately for his response.
