Female sanitation worker asked for leave due to her period

Rohtak: A heated argument broke out between female sanitation workers and officials at Maharshi Dayanand University (MDU) in Rohtak, Haryana. The women have leveled serious allegations against their superiors. The women worker asked for leave due to her period.

The officials were informed of this, but a supervisor allegedly ignored their request and ordered them to remove their clothes and get their periods checked. This angered the female workers and they created a ruckus. The officials claim that the female worker manhandled them. The university registrar arrived at the scene and assured them of an investigation and action against the guilty officials. The victims shared their ordeal with senior officials.

The woman made serious allegations

It is alleged that the supervisor, through a female security guard, forced the female sanitation workers to strip for an examination, violating their privacy and even taking photographs of them. This was done under the guise of an investigation, claiming it was an order from the Assistant Registrar.

When the matter escalated, the female worker refused to comply, and an attempt was made to force her as worker asked for leave due to her period. Following this, other sanitation workers took the matter seriously, and a protest ensued. Student organizations also came out in support of the female sanitation workers and demanded the suspension of the accused. Dial 112 also arrived at the scene.

Student leaders complained about the matter

Student leaders Dinesh Kangra, Vikram Dumoliya, and Pradeep Mota arrived at the scene and complained to Professor Bhagat Singh, who was present to hear the case. They stated that the sanitation supervisor had called other sanitation workers employed by the Skill Employment Corporation to clean the sports complex.

The female employees claim that two female employees were experiencing discomfort due to menstruation and worker asked for leave due to her period, and their supervisor was informed of this. Despite this, inappropriate action was taken against them. Dr. Bhagat Singh arrived at the scene and resolved the situation. He also assured that those involved in the misconduct will not be spared. If any wrongdoing is found in the investigation, they will be immediately dismissed.

General Secretary of the Non-Teaching Employees Union

General Secretary of the Non-Teaching Employees Union, Ajmer Singh, stated that the non-teaching employees of MDU were not at fault in this matter. Some people are unnecessarily defaming the university. The entire matter will be investigated.

Registrar K.K. Gupta, who arrived at the scene, stated that whatever wrongdoing has occurred with women at the university, we will investigate the entire incident. The supervisor has been removed and anyone found guilty in this matter will not be spared. He added that, if necessary, a case will be filed against the accused officials under the SC/ST Act. If such an act is done with any female employee in future, no one will be spared.
