Patna: Protests erupted on Monday at Chhapra Engineering College in Bihar after female students alleged that the college principal, along with his driver and a security guard, entered the girls' hostel late at night, raising serious concerns over campus safety and hostel security.

According to the students, the alleged incident took place around midnight. They claimed that the principal's driver and a security guard forcibly entered hostel rooms, while the principal was also present on the hostel premises. A video shared by the X user @Khurpenchh of the alleged incident has since gone viral on social media.

Meanwhile, another video shared by x user @mrfirozkhan circulating on social media features a student identifying herself as Arpita, who recounts her alleged ordeal. In the video, she claims that while she was away from the hostel, individuals allegedly entered her room without informing her or obtaining her consent. She alleges that the lock to her room was broken, her belongings were removed and placed outside, and two other students were subsequently accommodated in her room.
