What happened at the university in Odisha that led to protests by Nepalese students?

On February 16th, a third-year B.Tech student from Nepal was found dead in her hostel room, prompting protests from Nepalese students who claimed she was harassed by a fellow student prior to her death. The situation escalated dramatically when the university administration responded by directing all Nepalese international students to leave campus immediately. This directive created chaos and panic among the affected students. The incident has sparked significant outcry over student safety and institutional accountability, with protests occurring both in India and Nepal. The Indian government has since formed a high-level committee to investigate the circumstances surrounding the student's death and the university's controversial response.
