New Delhi, May 8: The Supreme Court on Friday directed all state governments to constitute committees to look into the incidents of ragging and curb the menace.

Passing a slew of directions to eradicate the menace from educational institutions across the country, a Bench headed by Justice Arijit Pasayat said every college should have a psychiatrist to provide counsel to the students.

In cases of alcoholism, educational institutions will have to take measures for de-addiction.

All the state governments will give an undertaking to the court about the steps taken by them in accordance with the apex court directions to prevent incidents of ragging in educational institutions.

    Make it compulsory for all Colleges & High Schools to have few Ragging Complain Boxes in the college & hostel premises along with a prominent Notice Board displaying the e-mail id, mobile no., toll free telephone no. and the address of the Anti-Ragging Commission. There should be an Anti-Ragging Squad in every institution. Even their contact details should be displayed prominently at the college & hostel premises. The notice should request the students to identify the rough students in the college premises and their names to the notice of the Anti Ragging Squad as well as to the State level Anti Ragging Commission. All institutions should take an undertaking from every student at the time of admission that if he is found ragging any students in the institution, the matter will be brought to the notice of State Anti Ragging Commission as well as to the nearest police station. That section of the admission form should be displaced in the notice board for the ignorant students to be aware of the seriousness of ragging.
