Yet another ragging allegation surfaces from MKCG Medical College
Odisha- Recently, a junior student of Odisha’s prestigious MKCG Medical College and Hospital has accused his seniors of ragging. Complaining to the anti-ragging cell, the medico claimed that he was mentally and physically tortured when he refused to follow the orders of the seniors.
Junior medico of MKCG Medical College and Hospital complained to the anti-ragging cell that they were being ragged by their seniors and made to do non-academic tasks.
Based on the complaint, the Anti-Ragging Cell of MKCG Medical College and Hospital has called an immediate meeting to investigate the matter thoroughly.
As per Odisha TV report, a day earlier, the father of a second-year MBBS student had also complained to the anti-ragging cell about the seniors ragging at the prestigious institute. He had reportedly appealed to the medical college authorities not to allow boys into the girls’ hostel.
In this regard, speaking to the OdishaTV, Suchitra Dash, dean-principal of the medical college informed,“We had received a complaint from a student’s father that seniors had forced juniors to write their records. However, the student claimed that the person was not her father. Moreover, the juniors have also declined any such record writing. The anti-ragging cell is very active and keeps a strict vigil. Strict action will be taken against the seniors if their records are found in any room of juniors”.
“We had also conducted a surprise raid and we have not recovered any record of any kind. We have a meeting in the evening, the next course of action will be decided there”, the dean further added.
Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that based on the recommendation of the anti-ragging committee, the state-run MKCG Medical College and Hospital in Odisha’s Ganjam district suspended five fourth-year MBBS students from the hostel for six months for allegedly ragging second-year students.
