Shaheed Bhagat Singh College (SBSC), part of Delhi University, has issued a notice prohibiting its student union from organizing or conducting college events, including annual festivals. This decision follows clashes reported during college festivals in early April 2026, raising significant safety concerns. The college administration, led by Principal Arun Kumar Attree, emphasized the need for discipline and proper coordination in campus activities. According to the new guidelines, all cultural events will be managed exclusively by the Cultural Committee and the Functions Committee, which comprise both faculty and students to ensure effective supervision. The student union is barred from participating in event management, seeking permissions, or collecting funds for activities. This decision was influenced by an incident on April 6, where a clash occurred among students, resulting in the suspension of about 10 students. The college aims to refocus the student union's role on representing student concerns and welfare, rather than organizing large events, reflecting a stricter management approach to campus activities.
