Haryana Police File Fresh FIR Against JJP’s Digvijay Chautala Over Kurukshetra University Event

A special police team is probing the case to test claims of political misuse of the law.

Overview

  • Police at Kurukshetra University confirmed Monday that a new FIR names JJP youth leader Digvijay Singh Chautala and several associates after an April 7 campus event.
  • The case cites Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita sections on mischief, criminal trespass and conspiracy, as well as the Public Property Damage law that punishes vandalism.
  • University officials say a hall booked as a drug-awareness programme drew 300–400 people, turned political, and left about 80 chairs and other property damaged.
  • The venue was booked by assistant professor Ajayab Singh, whom the university later suspended, according to ThePrint.
  • Chautala and INSO leaders call the FIR politically driven and point to the reported two‑week gap after the event, while a separate Hisar face-off involving Dushyant Chautala and a police unit is also under SIT review with multiple complaints but no FIR yet.
