What is Ragging?

Definition of Ragging β€” As per AICTE / UGC Regulations

Ragging is defined as any act that causes or is likely to cause physical, psychological, physiological, or emotional harm or apprehension to a student. It includes any act of teasing, treating or handling with rudeness any junior student, indulging in rowdy or undisciplined activities that cause or are likely to cause annoyance, hardship or psychological harm to any student.

Ragging also includes asking a student to do any act or perform anything that such a student will not willingly do in the ordinary course. It encompasses any act that affects the mental health and self-confidence of a student, deprives or disturbs their academic activities, or has an adverse effect on their overall personality development.

Ragging may be physical, verbal, psychological, sexual or any form of abuse β€” whether done in person, in groups, online, through social media, or through any other medium.

Important: Ragging is not just a disciplinary matter β€” it is a criminal offence under Indian law. Perpetrators can face imprisonment, fine, cancellation of admission, debarment from exams, and suspension from the institution in addition to criminal prosecution.

Forms of Ragging β€” All are Prohibited

Ragging takes many forms. All of the following acts are strictly banned at GCE and will attract severe disciplinary action.

Physical Abuse

Hitting, pushing, forcing to perform physical tasks, physical discomfort, sleep deprivation or any form of physical harm or threat to juniors.

Verbal Abuse

Shouting at, using offensive language, making derogatory remarks, humiliation in public, forcing to speak in a certain way or act upon verbal commands.

Psychological Harassment

Threatening, intimidating, creating fear, mental torture, forcing to confess, or any act that causes psychological trauma or stress to a student.

Cyberbullying & Online Ragging

Ragging through social media, WhatsApp, phone calls, emails, online platforms or any digital medium targeting junior students.

Social Exclusion

Deliberately isolating, boycotting, preventing a student from participating in activities or denying them basic campus rights and privileges.

Financial Exploitation

Forcing a junior to spend money on seniors, pay for meals or entertainment, extortion or demanding money or valuables in any form.

Sexual Harassment

Any sexually offensive remark, gesture, act or demand made against a student's will β€” stringently punished under both anti-ragging and POSH Act provisions.

Forced Acts & Humiliation

Forcing a student to wear uncomfortable clothing, perform embarrassing acts, sing songs, dance or carry out any demeaning activity against their will.

Consequences of Ragging

GCE treats ragging as a zero-tolerance offence. Any student found guilty of ragging β€” whether as a perpetrator, abettor or silent witness β€” will face immediate and severe disciplinary action in addition to legal proceedings.

  • Immediate Suspension β€” Pending inquiry, the accused student may be suspended from attending classes and campus activities.
  • Cancellation of Admission β€” Proven cases of ragging will result in cancellation of the student's admission with no refund of fees.
  • Debarment from Examinations β€” The guilty student may be debarred from appearing in internal or external examinations for a specified period.
  • Hostel Expulsion β€” Immediate removal from hostel accommodation with forfeiture of hostel dues.
  • Criminal Prosecution β€” Police FIR and criminal charges may be filed against the accused as per the Indian Penal Code.
