Ragging refers to an act that violates the dignity of an individual. Most of the time ragging means playing tricks on somebody. But ragging in today’s times has become a menace, a human right violation.

In India, under the guise of welcoming new students into college, the senior students adopt damaging forms of interaction which leads to serious psychological issues. In 2009, University Grants Commission (UGC) has passed the “UGC regulation on curbing the menace of ragging in higher educational institutions, 2009”.

Ragging is still considered a serious problem in our institution. We have various means to communicate to students about the seriousness of ragging and our attitude towards ragging.

The anti- ragging pledge is displayed prominently in our college and students are required to read it and submit their undertaking. We do not stop at the physical aspects of ragging; we also check for psychological issues arising from student behaviour or teacher behaviour.

We are a teacher-training institute and training students to not only become effective teachers but also a humane and kind individual is also a necessity. Problems of bullying and ragging that they may encounter later as teachers requires us to prepare them today to deal with such situations!

We provide a disciplined and safe environment to our students and keep a continuous watch and vigil both offline and online over ragging to prevent any untoward incident in our college. We have a very active Anti-ragging, Cell.

Activities undertaken by the Anti-ragging Cell
Various activities were conducted throughout the academic session to highlight the purpose of the cell.
