The alleged incident took place on November 26 and an anti-ragging committee meeting held on December 2 under the chairmanship of Dr Rajeev Tuli, the principal, decided to suspend the students. The suspension period came into effect from Wednesday.

“After an anonymous complaint, the institutional inquiry committee found seven students of 2nd year MBBS 2023 batch involved in the ragging of their juniors on November 26, 2024. These students behaved rudely with their juniors and took them to private accommodation and made them to stand for long period, used abusive language and made them to complete academic assignments,” a statement issued by Tuli’s office said, adding that the students did not “do any physical harm” to the juniors.
