Just a few months after a student’s murder on the premises of Presidency University, a similar incident at another university in North Bengaluru, Reva University, has sent shockwaves across education institutions in the city.
An engineering student was stabbed to death on the campus on Friday night during the annual fest of the university. The safety aspects at educational institutions have come under the scanner now.
After the incident at Presidency University, several institutions had taken up measures to amp up the security systems at their college. From metal detectors, QR codes for fest entries, strict vigilance of ID cards to counselling and sensitisation sessions for students, universities were trying to make the best use of their resources without creating an atmosphere of panic on campus.
