Former DU employee death: BJP protest outside Dikshit residence

“Without a thorough probe, we cannot say whether the complainant was right or wrong. The Chief Minister has already spoken to the Delhi University Vice Chancellor and Delhi Police Commissioner,” he said.

The 35-year-old former lab assistant had doused herself with kerosene and set herself on fire at gate number 6 of the Delhi Secretariat.

She had sustained 92 per cent burns and was taken to LNJP Hospital where she died yesterday.  

Police had recovered a purported suicide note from the spot in which she had said she was taking the extreme step to protest alleged physical and mental harassment by Principal G K Arora and another staff of Bhim Rao Ambedkar College in Yamuna Vihar. She was sacked from the college two years ago.
