New Delhi:
Senior students who were seen in a viral video of a horrific ragging case in a Kerala college have been expelled. The state government has ordered an investigation into the incident, while the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has sought a report from the state police within 10 days.
Five third-year students of Kottayam Government Nursing College were arrested yesterday over the brutal assault on first-year students.
The arrested students are Rahul Raj, NS Jeeva, NP Vivek, Rigil Jeeth, and Samuel Johnson.
In the viral video, the senior students were seen laughing and making lewd comments while a junior student was tied to a bed, and a heavy object was placed on his genitals. They poked him with a compass too.
Junior students alleged the viscous ragging has been going on for nearly three months. The police said it began in November 2024, shortly after the first-year students began their class.
