Nepalese students fear returning to KIIT campus after row over student’s death

The recent tragic death of Prakriti Lamsal, a Nepali student at KIIT University, has led to significant unrest among the Nepalese student community on campus. Following her demise, protests erupted, during which several Nepalese students were reportedly forcibly evicted from the university premises. Despite subsequent apologies from the university administration, many of these students now express deep fear and mistrust about returning to the campus. The situation has raised serious concerns about the safety and well-being of international students at the institution.
In response to the incident, a petition has been initiated, demanding justice for Prakriti Lamsal and highlighting the alleged negligence by the university authorities in addressing her prior complaints. The petition underscores the need for a thorough investigation and accountability to prevent such tragedies in the future.
The university has stated that it is taking measures to address the concerns of the Nepalese student community and ensure their safety upon their return. However, the effectiveness of these measures remains to be seen, as trust has been significantly eroded.
This incident has also drawn attention to the broader issue of international student safety and the responsibilities of educational institutions in providing a secure environment for all students.
