It is my feeling that asking for disciplinary action on students is not enough. The administrators of the college simply have no incentives to implement these measures beyond some issue of circulars and threats - perhaps under extreme pressure, some expulsions of scapegoats (sometimes rather unfairly - the student least likely to have muscle power for example). It is the administrators that have allowed this level of violence to be reached. It certainly wasn't as bad in the pasr. Their standard defense - we are scared of the students. The way out is to follow up credible public evidence on ragging with firing of administrators - the principals and hostel wardens. You cannot imagine how much good these people are capable of doing, how bold they can get, when their own job is truly on the line. Santanu.

How about the AEC alumni raising their voice? They can write to the Principal, write to newspapers, police and the Minister of Tech. Education, demanding an immediate investigation and intervention; and after that staying in touch with the issue until satisfactory action on the part of authorities are visible.
