What does Non-Compliance with Anti-Ragging mean?
Ragging is defined as any conduct by a student(s), whether it is verbal or written, that has the effect of taunting, treating or handling a fresher or any other student rudely. It also refers to engaging in brash or indisciplined acts that create or are likely to inflict difficulty, physical or psychological harm. Non-compliance with UGC anti-ragging regulations endangers student safety, especially given rising concerns about ragging-related hardship and campus intolerance.
To avoid such a situation in the HEIs (Higher Education Institutions), the Ministry of Education and the University Grant Commission(UGC) of India set up a Centre for Youth (C4Y), which serves as a monitoring agency and supports India’s National Ragging Prevention Program. C4Y monitors a 24x7 anti-ragging helpline, compliances, technology support, and raises awareness to reduce ragging in universities and colleges across India.
