Ragging
Jaipur: In a shocking case of ragging incident reported from Dungarpur Medical College in Jaipur, a first-year MBBS student had to undergo dialysis four times after seven second-year students allegedly forced him to do more than 300 sit-ups in scorching heat near the college which severely impacted his kidney.
Taking cognizance of the incident, the college principal filed an FIR against the seven senior accused students on Tuesday and suspended them based on the recommendation of the anti-ragging committee. According to the committee, the accused students were found guilty of ragging the junior student after an investigation was conducted.
According to the SHO of Dungarpur Sadar police station, Girdhari Singh, the accused students made the victim do more than 300 sit-ups at a place near the college. This exerted severe pressure on his kidney, leading to a malfunction and an infection, he told PTI.
Following this, the victim was hospitalized in Ahmedabad for a week during which dialysis was done four times, the police officer said, adding the student is stable now. He rejoined college in June.
