Eight students pursuing third-year MBBS at Government Theni Medical College have been booked by police for ragging a first year student.
The victim lodged a complaint on the toll-free helpline for ragging on Saturday, following which the anti-ragging committee of the college, headed by Dean A.K. Rajendran, conducted an investigation and forwarded the complaint to Gandamanur Vilakku police station.
The police have registered a case against the eight students.
V. Baskaran, Theni Superintendent of Police, said no arrest had been made so far.
“We have been repeatedly advising students not to indulge in ragging, as they may spoil their future. Sometimes, severe cases of ragging may also result in suicide by victims. Students should understand the severity of ragging and refrain from indulging in it. Though ragging cases have come down, stray incidents like this have to stop. Parents and professors/teachers should also take an active part in curbing ragging on the campus,” said Mr. Baskaran.
