Ragging - A menace that need to be eradicated in the Colleges and Educations institutions once for all ! In Deccan Chronicle -01 Dec 22

 Ragging is a menace that can have effect on physical, mental and social wellbeing of the youngsters

The human tendency to dominate has to be removed with the effective regulations and formulating proper guidelines before it shows its ugly face.

Ragging is educational institutions continues to exist with the notion of acceptability as students consider it as socially acceptable ritual. This notion has to be removed from the beginning and strict enforceable laws to be explained in case the rules are broken in the institutions

Sexual repression in any form to be condemned and covering of the act of ragging to be stopped as this effects demoralization amongst students, and encourages suicidal tendencies and promotes violence. Strict punishments have be given and also widely informed in media, as these acts strengthens the perpetrator if not punished

Any form of human rights abuse should not gain political field group and promote exploitation and hence to be condemned strongly by the government and administrative authorities

to instill fear and responsibility amongst students
