Ragging means testing and playing cruel jokes on someone. Nowadays ragging has reached an alarming situation. Students staying at the hostels of specially medical and engineering colleges become the victims of ragging. Generally the senior students rag the fresher’s. They claim that they thus test the fresher’s physical and mental capabilities. But, all these are lame excuses. Ragging, to speak the truth, has become the name of media evil barbarism. Ragging takes the form of physical and mental torture. And after effects of these are horrible indeed. The victims often become permanently injured and some even die. Ragging has been condemned by all right-thinking people. Hence, it should be nipped in the bud.
