In a series of stories, mid-day has in the past highlighted the plight of the students being subjected to moral policing at the government-run Grant Medical College. After a complaint was filed by the students, DMER formed a committee to investigate into the allegations. In the report filed by the committee, dean Dr Chandanwale, along with the female warden, were found to be violating students' rights.
