Ragging is any disorderly conduct, whether by words spoken or written, or by an act which has the effect of teasing, treating or handling with rudeness any student, indulging in rowdy or undisciplined activities which cause or are likely to cause annoyance, hardship or psychological harm or to raise fear or apprehension thereof in a fresher or a junior student and which has the effect of causing or generating a sense of shame or embarrassment so as to adversely affect the psyche of a fresher or a junior student.
IIT Bhilai has a NO TOLERANCE POLICY for Ragging whether by IIT Bhilai students or of IIT Bhilai students, or both; whether inside or outside the premises of the Institute. Action shall be taken against people indulging in such activities either suo-moto or upon receipt of a written complaint from a victim giving details of the incident and alleged student(s).
The Honourable Supreme Court of India in its order has completely banned Ragging in educational institutes. It is emphasized that ragging besides being a reprehensible act, is now a punishable offence. Hence to comply with the verdict of the Honourable Supreme court of India and to maintain a fair environment of teaching and learning inside the campus, the IIT Bhilai has also imposed complete ban on ragging of any kind.
