NSUI Protests Panjab University's Curbs on Women's Night Outings
Students at Panjab University are upset about a new rule.
The university now requires girls to get permission from their parents before going out at night.
Parents have to say how many times their daughters can leave the hostel at night.
If the girls go out more than allowed, their parents are told.
The students, specifically the NSUI, think this is unfair because it only applies to women.
They believe it's an old-fashioned and unequal rule.
NSUI protested against Panjab University's new rules for women's night outings.
The new rules require parental permission for women to leave the hostel at night.
Parents must specify the number of allowed night outings for their daughters.
If a student exceeds the limit, parents will be notified.
NSUI calls the rules regressive, patriarchal and discriminatory.
