File report on steps taken to stop ragging, Calcutta HC asks IIT Kharagpur
The Calcutta high court has ordered the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur to file a report on steps it has taken to stop ragging following complaints from wardens of a hostel. A single bench of Justice Rajasekhar Mantha on Thursday asked the IIT director to also name the students involved, citing information of what appears to be a clear case of ragging. The petitioners filed a supplementary affidavit annexing an email dated February 4, which appears to have been addressed by wardens of the Rajendra Prasad Hall of Residence, one of the oldest hostels, to students. “It is corroborated by a communication addressed by one professor Saswata Chakraborty, dated November 9, 2022, addressed to the inspector-in-charge of Kharagpur town police station.” Police have been tight-lipped and refused to provide details related to the case.
