Angomcha Bimol Akoijam has strongly rejected allegations against him, insisting that he has “nothing to hide” and challenging those making the claims to come forward openly. Akoijam has described the controversy as a “witch hunt” and questioned what he calls an attempt to damage his reputation. The controversy has taken a significant turn after Jawaharlal Nehru University dismissed Akoijam from his position as a professor on October 9, 2026. According to reports, the university acted after its Internal Committee conducted an inquiry into allegations of sexual harassment and recommended major punishment. Akoijam has previously described reports about the allegations as unverified and criticised what he called a media trial. His remarks, including his demand to see the allegations and his challenge for those involved to appear without masks, have brought renewed attention to the dispute. The case raises questions about the inquiry process, the response to allegations and the distinction between a public figure’s defence and the findings of an institutional investigation. #BimolAkoijam #AngomchaBimolAkoijam #JNU #Manipur #Congress #WitchHunt #News18 #BreakingNews n18oc_breakingnews
