Some girls have staged a demonstration in this regard, said the police. Following this, Vice-Chancellor assured the girls of protection and security, they said.

In this backdrop, the girls brought up the issue of a person trying to steal a laptop from the hostel, prompting the varsity Registrar to also lodge a complaint, they said.

Also, he confessed to have stolen the girls’ clothes and worn them to conceal his identity while moving around the hostel, they said.
