5 MBBS students suspended, fined Rs 25k each over false ragging allegations
Mandi: In a disciplinary action, Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri Government Medical College and Hospital (SLBSGMCH), Mandi, has suspended five MBBS students after a probe found that they had filed false allegations of ragging against their seniors. The decision follows a detailed investigation by the college's anti-ragging committee.
The inquiry, initiated last year after the students from the 2022 batch lodged a formal complaint, concluded that the accusations were fabricated with the intent to tarnish the institution’s image and wrongfully implicate other students. Terming the move as a serious misconduct, the college has suspended the students from classes and hostel for three months and imposed a fine of Rs 25,000 each.
According to PTI report, the administration of the government medical college suspended five MBBS students for making false allegations of ragging against their seniors.
In 2023, the five students from Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri Government Medical College and Hospital (SLBSGMCH) in a complaint alleged that they were ragged. After the complaint, the college’s anti-ragging committee launched a detailed investigation into the matter, an order issued by the office of Principal D K Verma said.
