A video shows a boy on a cot with his hands and legs tied. A group of other boys is seen jabbing him with a sharp object, laughing while doing so, while the victim is heard crying. This clip is now the focus of a #kerala police investigation into an alleged case of ragging at a govt nursing college in #kottayam — the latest reminder of a menace that continues to haunt the hallways of educational institutions across the country. Records accessed by The Indian Express under RTI Act show 78 students named under “List of the suicide/ death cases alleged due to #ragging” from January 2012 to October 2023. This number, given the 4.14 crore students in higher #education, is a tiny fraction — but that’s just one part of the story.
