A second year MBBS student of a state-run medical college here was allegedly subjected to ragging by four seniors and he attempted to end his life, authorities said on Sunday. The victim, a young man now in a depressed state of mind, is being treated for injuries on his hand (around wrist) as well, said medical authorities.
Following a complaint, a panel was set up by the Dharmapuri Government Medical College (DGMC), and an enquiry found that the allegation of ragging including verbal abuse was true. The findings of the committee led to the suspension of four students, all of them in their third year from the college and permanent suspension from the hostel.
