Abstract

Every year, several students across India attempt suicide or just drop out of college, unable to face the humiliation that goes by the name of ragging. Student hostels are citadels of such cruelty in many educational institutes in the country. Medical colleges are included in this list. In 2009, Aman Kachroo, a medical student in Himachal Pradesh, died after an assault by his seniors in the name of "ragging".
