The "glamour" of Mood Indigo has officially turned into a nightmare.

At a recent MOODI handover party, a newly appointed Core Group (CG) member—someone supposed to lead the pride of IITB—became a predator. Under the influence of alcohol, he allegedly sexually harassed a female Co-CG, physically assaulting her (touching her breasts).

But here is the truly disgusting part: The cover-up. Instead of taking this straight to the Gender Cell or the police, the MOODI leadership allegedly pressured the victim to "compromise." Their solution? A quiet impeachment. Why? Because they didn't want to "tarnish the image" of the fest.

Since when did a cultural festival's reputation become more valuable than the dignity and safety of a student? While the perpetrator roams the campus freely, the victim is left with the trauma and the weight of being told to "stay quiet for the team."

*We cannot let this be swept under the rug. If we don’t demand a legal inquiry now, who is next?*

Mood Indigo is supposed to be about culture, talent, and "moods." Apparently, the current "mood" is sexual harassment and institutional silencing.

A newly appointed CG thought his position gave him the right to lay hands on a colleague. He didn't just cross a line; he demolished it.

But instead of facing the law, he’s getting a slap on the wrist.

The MOODI Team’s Logic:

Assault happens? : Impeach him quietly.

Victim is traumatized? : Tell her to compromise.

The Institute’s reputation?: PROTECT IT AT ALL COSTS.

This isn't just about one drunk guy; it’s about a toxic inner circle that protects its own.

They are treating a criminal offense like a minor administrative error. Impeachment is for bad management; jail is for sexual offenders.

Who is this guy? Why is his name being protected? If you have information, it's time to speak up. The "prestige" of IITB is already gone if this is how we treat our women.
