BHOPAL: Following a complaint lodged with National Anti-Ragging Helpline, four second year MBBS students of Gandhi Medical College have been suspended from the campus for six months for allegedly verbally abusing and ragging first year students on the terrace for more than six hours.

The incident took place on Monday night when first year students of GMC residing in 'B' block hostel of the medical college were told to gather on the top floor of the building. Later on the terrace of the hostel the ragging allegedly took place for about six hours, but the allegation has been denied by college administration.

"The students found guilty of the offence have been suspended from medical college and from attending classes for six months. From our investigation the ragging took place for about two hours," said GMC dean Dr MC Songra.

One of the many first year MBBS students who faced ragging then reported to National Anti-Ragging Helpline. After the complaint, GMC administration took immediate action.
