Fourteen senior MBBS students of Telangana’s Government Medical College (GMC) have been suspended for allegedly harassing junior students in a case of ragging, which has triggered concern prompting the college administration to act.
A special meeting involving the college principal, senior officials and heads of departments was held on Tuesday to review the incident and discuss disciplinary measures. The NMC subsequently alerted the local police and college authorities, following which the institution initiated an internal inquiry through its anti-ragging mechanism. Investigators reportedly examined video footage and other material as part of the proceedings.
During the inquiry, 14 senior students were allegedly found involved in the incident.
College Principal Dr. B. Valya clarified that action had been initiated in accordance with anti-ragging guidelines and that further investigation was underway.
