Anti Ragging Committee

INTRODUCTION

Ragging is a serious offence that is strictly prohibited under the UGC Regulations on Curbing the Menace of Ragging in Higher Educational Institutions, 2009. It is a punishable act under the provisions of the Indian Penal Code. Our college has established an Anti-Ragging Cell to comply with these regulations and ensure a safe, inclusive, and harassment-free learning environment. This cell is dedicated to preventing and addressing any incidents of ragging, promoting a culture of mutual respect, and safeguarding the well-being of all students. Through awareness programmes, strict monitoring, and prompt action, the Anti-Ragging Cell upholds the values of discipline, dignity, and harmony within the institution.

Objectives

• To create awareness among students about the detrimental effects of ragging and the severe consequences of engaging in such behaviour.
• To provide a safe and secure environment for all students, particularly freshers, ensuring they are free from intimidation, harassment, or victimisation.
• To establish accessible and confidential channels for students to report ragging incidents without fear of reprisal.
• To respond promptly and effectively to any reported incidents of ragging through proper investigation procedures.
• To take appropriate disciplinary action against those guilty of ragging as per UGC regulations and institutional policies.
• To provide counselling services to both victims of ragging and reformed students who have engaged in ragging behaviour.
• To conduct regular anti-ragging campaigns, orientation programs, and workshops to foster a culture of mutual respect and dignity.
• To ensure compliance with all UGC regulations and Supreme Court directives related to preventing ragging in higher educational institutions.
• To maintain proper records of anti-ragging undertakings from students and parents, as well as documentation of any incidents and actions taken.
