The document discusses issues with ragging in colleges in India, noting several tragic cases where students have died by suicide after facing intense ragging.

7. BIG ISSUE OF ALL COLLEGES OF TODAY
 Nagedra AV, 25, was found dead in Chandigarh's prestigious Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and
Research on 19 April. The doctor had joined this post-graduate institution just two months ago. The police said
he jumped to death from the hostel building, his father said he had been pushed. His father said a day ago he
had said he was finding it difficult to continue there due to ragging.[21]
Satwinder Kumar, 28, ended his life on 3 March. He was a student of the Advanced Training Institute, Mumbai. In
his suicide note he named seven seniors who had ragged him so much that he left for home for Kurukshetra
rather than take mid-term exams. Before he could reach home, he committed suicide by throwing himself
before a goods train in Rajasthan's Jhalawar district.[25] Premlatha, 22, committed suicide by consuming
sulphuric acid in the chemistry lab of the B.S.Abdur Rahman Crescent Engineering College on 5 February. Her
brother singled out one senior, Yogesh, 22, a fourth year student, as the person ragging her the most.[26]
On 7 March, Aman Kachroo, 19, a first year student of Dr Rajendra Prasad Medical College, Tanda, Kangra, HP,
India, had repeatedly complained to his parents about the brutal ragging that took place on the Medical College
campus — often by completely drunk third-year students. On Friday night and Saturday morning (March 6–7,
2009), the boy was beaten so badly that he died of brain haemorrhage.[31]
