An MBBS first year student (Para II) of Ganesh Shankar Vidyarthi Memorial Medical (GSVM) College has accused an MBBS 2nd year student, of using abusive language on Sunday night and lodged a complaint on the Anti-Ragging help line of the University Grant Commission (UGC).

Following the complaint, the GSVM’s anti-ragging panel swung into action and suspended the senior student from class and hostel till the completion of the investigation. The incident occurred on late Sunday night. The junior student had stated in his complaint that he got stressed after being abused by the senior and remained disturbed till late night hours after reaching his hostel room.

Sensing trouble, he lodged a complaint through his mobile at the Anti-Ragging Helpline at 12.30 the same night. The UGC helpline, registered his complaint, and immediately informed the Director, General Medical Education, DM, SSP and college administration about the matter. Principal GSVM Prof. Sanjay Kala told reporters that the anti-ragging committee has been asked to conduct an inquiry and submit a report soon. “We are strictly against any form of ragging in the college and shall not tolerate such incidents,” said Kala further.

To recall, earlier also GSVM authorities had expelled six junior doctors from the hostel for thrashing the students doing internship in an alleged case of ragging. The incident took place in 2019 December.
