The college is taking no chances after ragging was declared a criminal offence by the Supreme Court in May this year.To check ragging on campus, Ramjas has come up with certain measures: * It will have no seniors on July 16, July 17 * It will have no free helplines - 93110 31121-26 * It has appointed two counsellors * Anti-ragging squad to patrol college for two weeks.Earlier this year, the Supreme Court had said a victim or the head of the institution could file an FIR against any senior caught ragging.As a member of the Supreme Court-appointed committee, the Principal is set to lead the way to make Delhi University ragging free.''Every teacher and every student should be involved in eradicating ragging. The court had said it is the collective responsibility of the college,'' said Dr Rajendra Prasad, Principal, Ramjas College.With just four simple steps, Ramjas is all set to do away with ragging completely, perhaps an indication for other colleges in Delhi University to follow suit.
