Lovely University Punjab | LPU Campus Violence: Heavy Police Deployment After Clashes, Vehicle Fires

Violence at Punjab's Lovely Professional University (LPU) erupted after protests were triggered by an unverified social media report about an alleged sexual assault on campus. Students reportedly vandalised university property, blocked a national highway and clashed with police, with stones and bottles thrown and police vehicles set on fire. After 48 hours, the situation is gradually returning to normal, with heavy police deployment, a 10-day suspension of classes and an advisory urging students not to spread unverified social media claims.
