Apeejay students suspended for making junior strip

CNN-IBN

New Delhi: Six students accused of ragging a junior at the Apeejay Institute in Nodia have been suspended from college.

A first year student of Architecture at the institute had filed a case against the six seniors.

According to the FIR filed by the student at the Kasna police station, he was called to Samvad Apartment in Greater Noida by his seniors on October 4.

The student alleges he was stripped and made to dance. The Institute had set up a committee to look in to the complaint, which was made October 8.

The University Grants Commission has decided to frame strict regulations to be followed by universities across the country putting the onus on the institutes to file FIR if the victim wants to approach the police.

The Supreme Court says ragging is a criminal punishable offence, but that does not appear to be acting as a deterrent.
