Ragging is a reprehensible act which does no good to anyone. Indulging in ragging is deriving a sadistic pleasure and showing-off power, authority or superiority over juniors, which is highly undesirable. No act of ragging shall be tolerated and will go unnoticed and unpunished. Broadly, ragging is any disorderly conduct by words spoken or written or by an act which has the effect of teasing, treating or handling with rudeness to any other student, indulging in a rowdy or undisciplined manner likely to cause annoyance, hardship or psychological harm or to raise fear or apprehension thereof in a fresher or a junior student. Asking the students to do any act or perform something which students will not do in the ordinary course and which has the effect or causing or generating a sense of shame or embarrassment so as to adversely affect the physique or psyche of a fresher or a junior student is also an act of ragging. It is right as well as an obligation of all the students to fight against the menace of ragging. Any instance of ragging to which they are subjected or which comes in their knowledge should be brought to the knowledge of the authorities. It shall be promptly dealt with while protecting the complainants from any harassment by the perpetrators. Ragging is banned in the University. Anyone indulging in reprehensible act of ragging will be punished appropriately and an First Information Report (FIR) will be lodged with the local police authorities. The punishment for ragging may include:
