Violent protests broke out at Lovely Professional University in Jalandhar late Saturday after unverified social media rumours of a rape and suicide.
Protesting students damaged property, smashed window panes, set parts of buildings on fire, and blocked the Delhi-Amritsar national highway around 4am.
DIG Jalandhar Range Naveen Singla stated an FIR is being registered regarding an alleged rape of a student three days ago.
