"Ragging" means causing,
inducing, compelling or forcing a student, whether by
way of a practical joke or otherwise, to do any act
which detracts from human dignity or violates his/her
person or exposes him/her to ridicule, or compels
him/her to forbear from doing any lawful act, by
intimidating, wrongfully restraining, wrongfully
confining or injuring him/her or by using criminal force
to him/her, or by holding out to him/her any threat of
such intimidation, wrongful restraint, wrongful
confinement, injury or the use of criminal force.
Ragging being an evil practice, is inhuman, illegal and
punishable. It violates the discipline of an educational
institution and adversely affects the standards of
higher education. Ragging in educational institution is
banned by the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India. The Court
has issued mandatory orders to curb the menace of
ragging in educational institutions. If an applicant for
admission is found to have indulged in ragging in the
past or it is noticed later that he/she has indulged in
ragging, his/her admission may be refused or he/she
shall be expelled from the educational institution. The
punishment may also be in other forms, such as
suspension from the classes for a limited period, or
fine with a public apology, debarring from
representation in events, withholding results,
suspension or expulsion from hostel or mess, and the
like. If the Head of the Institution is not satisfied
with these arrangements for action, an First Information
Report (FIR) can be filed without exception by the
institutional authorities with the local police. The
discretionary power vests solely with the University
Authorities.
We at RGNUL are committed removing ragging in all forms.
In compliances with the guidelines laid down by the
Hon'ble Apex Court of the country RGNUL has constituted
an Anti-Ragging Committee. Anti-Ragging Committee
comprises of four Faculty Members nominated by the
Registrar.
The Committee shall assist to observe the
recommendations/directions issued by the Hon'ble Court
without exception and if it is observed that there is
any deviation, the committee shall inform the Registrar
of the University.
"Let's together curb this menace."
