As per the order, five students from the 2022 batch have been suspended from classes and the hostel for three months and fined Rs 25,000 each, to be paid within a week.
NEW DELHI: The administration of a government medical college here on Wednesday suspended five MBBS students for making false allegations of ragging against their seniors. In 2023, the five students from Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri Government Medical College and Hospital (SLBSGMCH) in a complaint alleged that they were ragged.
After the complaint, the college's anti-ragging committee launched a detailed investigation into the matter, an order issued by the office of principal D K Verma said. "The inquiry revealed that the allegations were fabricated with an intent to malign the college's reputation and falsely implicate innocent students. This kind of behaviour cannot be tolerated in an institution of medical education," the order said, adding that the false complaint was made due to rivalry.
