From campus leader to rape accused: The full story of Monojit Mishra’s life, influence and fear

Share
The Kolkata Law College is making headlines after a 24-year-old student accused Monojit Mishra, a former student and once-powerful figure on campus, of rape. Once a name that echoed across the campus walls with pride — “Monojit Dada lives in our hearts”– has now become the centre of a horrific crime. Nicknamed “Mango” by his friends, Monojit allegedly held unchecked influence in the college even years after graduating. Students claim he was feared by many, and multiple past complaints of harassment and misconduct against him were reportedly overlooked.
