Ragging Incident Shakes Uttarakhand Engineering College

A first-year BTech student at an engineering college in Uttarakhand's Pauri district has accused his seniors of ragging. The anti-ragging cell has initiated an investigation, and a preliminary report has been submitted. Accused students are to be interrogated further post-vacation.

In a disturbing episode at Uttarakhand's Pauri district, a first-year BTech student from GB Pant Institute of Engineering and Technology claims he was subjected to ragging by seniors. The incident reportedly took place on June 21 in the institute's Trishul hostel.

The anti-ragging cell immediately acted by holding a meeting and summoning the accused second-year students. However, the investigation faced a delay as the college is currently closed for summer vacations.

A preliminary report has implicated four to five students, and further actions include asking the accused to return with their parents for a thorough inquiry. Meanwhile, hostel registrations for the third year have been suspended to ensure student safety.
