The Anti Ragging Committee at the college has been established to prevent ragging on campus and to implement effective measures in line with the Supreme Court of India and UGC guidelines.

Purpose of the Committee

• To maintain a campus completely free from ragging

As per the Supreme Court’s ruling on May8,2009 (Civil Appeal No.887/2009), the UGC issued the “Regulations on Curbing the Menace of Ragging in Higher Educational Institutions, 2009.” According to this, ragging includes any of the following actions:

3. Forced acts– Making a student perform actions they wouldn’t normally do, which lead to shame, torment, or embarrassment.
4. Academic disruption– Any senior student’s actions that disrupt or interfere with another student’s or fresher’s regular educational activities.
5. Exploitation– Using a fresher or any other student to complete personal or group academic work.
6. Financial extortion– Any forcible financial burden placed on a fresher or other student.
7. Physical or sexual abuse– Any form of physical abuse, including sexual assault, stripping, lewd gestures, causing bodily harm, or jeopardizing health.
8. Verbal or psychological abuse– Use of spoken words, email, public insult, or other communication leading to humiliation or deriving sadistic pleasure from another student’s discomfort.
9. Discrimination-based bullying– Any physical or mental abuse, including bullying and exclusion, based on colour, race, religion, caste, ethnicity, gender (including transgender), sexual orientation, appearance, nationality, language, place of origin, residence, or economic background.
