Anti-Ragging Cell

The college follows zero tolerance for ragging incidents in the campus. To ensure it college complies the guidelines laid down by the UGC. For its effective implementation, the college has a mechanism of establishing anti-ragging cell. The cell has the onus of taking up the grievance related to ragging. The aggrieved student can directly reach out to the cell with a written complaint, after which members of the cell acts to ensure objectivity in the issue.

Ragging is a disturbing reality in the higher education system of our country. Despite the fact that over the years, ragging has claimed hundreds of innocent lives and has ruined the careers of thousands of bright students, the practice is still perceived by many as a way of 'familiarisation' and an 'initiation into the real world' for young college-going students. The Ragging is defined as any disorderly conduct, whether by words spoken or written or by an act, has the effect of teasing, treating, or handling with rudeness a fresher or a junior student. Indulging in a rowdy or undisciplined activity that causes or is likely to cause annoyance, hardship, or psychological harm or to raise fear or apprehension thereof in a fresher or junior student. Asking the students to do any act or perform something that such students will not do in the ordinary course and which has the effect of causing or generating a sense of shame or embarrassment so as to adversely affect the physique or psyche of a fresher or junior student. This can lead to adverse effects such as depression, anxiety, and sometimes even suicide.
