Bharatpur medical college takes action in ragging case; 10 students face suspension

Bharatpur: In the case of ragging at Shri Jagannath Paharia Medical College in Bharatpur, the college administration has suspended 10 senior students including 7 female students and 3 male students for seven days. Their punishment will begin after the Diwali holidays, during which time they will be barred from using the library, sports facilities, gym, and similar areas for one month.

The incident occurred on October 21. Thirteen first-year MBBS female students were subjected to ragging by 10 senior students, who blocked them in the common room, forced them to reveal their hobbies, and compelled them to sing. Disturbed by the ragging, the students reported the matter to the college principal. Following this, the anti-ragging committee conducted an investigation. As soon as Principal Dr Tarun Lal became aware of the issue, he immediately activated the anti-ragging committee. All the affected students were called to the principal’s office. Although the students initially declined any form of action, the principal took the matter seriously.
