54 Women from 1s semester an 3rd semester were fined Rs. 13.5 lakhs for ragging a girl. The incident came to light after the MCI – Medical Council of India has instructed the officials of DMCH – Darbhanga Medical College and Hospital, to take action against the students who were involved in the ragging.
An official of the DMCH said, ‘the ARC (Anti Ragging Committee) faced difficulty after none of the first semester students came forward to reveal that they were ragged by senior women. We quizzed the students to find the details and the names of those involved from the 3rd semester. All all the 27 students of the 1st semester and 27 students from the 3rd semester were fined as per the DMCH Anti-ragging rules. The students failed to report the incident and also tried to cover-up the whole thing.’
Further speaking to a media person, ‘We received an email from the MCI. And we have to act according to it. A fine of Rs. 25000 has been imposed on each student. Total of 54 students has been fined after we found out their involvement in the ragging incident.’
