105 Dental Colleges Failed To Submit Anti-Ragging Orientation Program Report: DCI issues list

The colleges had been directed to conduct an orientation program/workshop at their premises at the beginning of the BDS Course by inviting /calling any one member of the Dental Council of India from their state or neighbouring states (if not available in their state) for periodic training of the members of the anti-ragging cells/committees/squads of dental colleges and for awareness about ragging amongst students (freshers and seniors).

The colleges were also directed to furnish the following documents to the DCI office after the conduction of the orientation program-

1 Report of the Anti-Ragging Orientation Program.

2 Name of the DCI Member attended the said program.

3 List of participants in the said program.

4 Photographs of the said program.

Ragging is a criminal offence and hence the 'DCI Regulations, 2009' have been framed to prohibit, prevent and eliminate the menace of ragging in dental colleges.

The Dental Council of India has been constituted by an Act of Parliament to regulate the profession of dentistry and also to maintain the highest standards of dental education in the country. It is the statutory and bounden duty of the DCI to take such steps which are required to be taken to maintain the highest standards of dental education in the country.
