Chandigarh, March 12
The shoot-out at DAV college campus today led to the cancellation of the star night that was to be held on Tuesday. Fearing more trouble, the DAV College cancelled the function that was organised by the Student Council of DAV College.
Famous Punjabi singers Preet Harpal and Mafia Munder were to perform at the college ground in the evening. However, the shoot-out at the venue has forced the college to call-off the event.
SSP Chandigarh Naunihal Singh was the chief guest at the function. Police sources confirmed that the star night has been called-off. However, they stated that the college would still be kept under a close watch.
Sources, said that the president of the student council belongs to Panjab University Student Union (PUSU) and the opposition members of Student Organistaion of Panjab University (SOPU) had planned to disrupt the function. With all the invitations to guests already sent and all arrangements for the star night made, along with the setting of the stage, the shoot-out that has led to the cancellation has turned out to be a major embarrassment for the college.
This is the first violence reported after AK Nanda took-charge of the college as the officiating principal. The college has also decided to ban the entry of the college students who are found involved in the incident and would be taking disciplinary action. It could also lead to expulsion from the college and cancellation of admission for the next academic session.
