“Ragging is totally banned in the institution, and anyone found guilty of ragging and abetting is liable to be punished appropriately.” The Supreme Court of India has laid down very strict rules for implementation of Anti Ragging measures to avoid occurrence of undesirable activities such as ragging inside or outside the campus. Any individual or collective act or practice of ragging constitutes gross indiscipline.

Exemplary punishments will be accorded to the defaulting students which may include rustication from the Institute and handing over the defaulter to the police for dealing with criminal offense of ragging.
