The first allegation was made by a journalist on another journalist's behalf as she wanted to remain anonymous. She claims Bose touched her inappropriately. The incident allegedly took place when they were both journalism students at ACJ.

The Quint tried to reach out to the journalist who made the allegation, but through an intermediary, she expressed the desire not to speak any further.

Another journalist alleged that Bose had ‘bullied and harassed’ women. She also gave a detailed account of a personal incident. The incident happened a year and a half ago.







Another batchmate from ACJ has called him out for being ‘inappropriate’ around women.
