Answer:The circular makes it mandatory for every college to display overtly on every brochure, circular or form it releases pertaining to admission in that university, the fact that ragging and any activity which promotes or supports ragging is prohibited and strict action will be taken against anyone who engages in such activities.
The brochure of admission should print all the relevant regulations regarding ragging in full.
It should also include the numbers of the anti ragging helpline, the head of the institution, the anti ragging cell of the university, District and Sub Divisional authorities, Wardens of hostels.
The application of admission should also contain a form which is mandatorily to be filled up by any student and signed. It should contain the student’s agreement that he understands the rules and regulations against ragging and promises to abide by them.A similar form is to be read and signed by the parents of every student as well.
The circular requires that at the start of every academic session, the head of any institution to convene a meeting of wardens, anti ragging cells, student representatives and faculty members to discuss and deliberate on improving and solidifying measures against ragging. The onus is on the college to spread awareness about the dehumanizing effect of ragging and related behaviour. Every department, building hostel etc. must have posters and circulars elucidating the strict policy against ragging.
The circular requires colleges to identify vulnerable areas throughout the campus and keep a constant vigil in these areas. Tightening of security in areas like the hostel, or any other secluded areas is imperative.
All institutions should conduct discrete random surveys every two weeks for the first three months of the academic year in the hostels, with special focus on the junior years and the freshers. It does allow every institution to formulate its own methodology as to the surprise surveys.
If an institution is affiliated to a parent university, then the head of that institution needs to submit a weekly report of the university’s adherence to and practise of the Anti Ragging measures to the Vice Chancellor of the parent university and a monthly report thereafter. The Vice Chancellor in turn needs to submit a fortnightly report to the State Level monitoring cell. These are essential steps to hold the Universities accountable for not just applying these rules but also ensuring that they are correctly and efficiently implemented. The submission of reports to higher authorities keeps these universities under constant scrutiny and thus keeps higher institutions in check and constantly clamping down on ragging related activities.
