This document discusses ragging, which refers to teasing or harassing students, especially newcomers or junior students. It notes that ragging originated from British public schools and is now a problem particularly in India, USA, and Sri Lanka. Ragging can be mild like breaking the ice between seniors and juniors, or severe, causing mental stress or even death. While some myths claim ragging builds character, facts show it is an archaic practice and the government has banned it, though incidents still occur due to discrimination and viewing it as a ritual. The document concludes by advocating joining together to end this evil practice.
