Based on the complaint, the anti-ragging committee held a meeting to discuss the complaint. After thorough discussions, the committee has decided to impose a fine of Rs 25,000 each on the house surgeons involved in the incident," said Suchitra Dash, college principal. An internal inquiry found the victim was not physically assaulted. "They psychologically harassed the student," she said. The complainant said he had informed the college dean about the ragging incident on May 13. Subsequently, some of his classmates, hostel union members and some house surgeons threatened him to withdraw the complaint. They also threatened to boycott him if he did not withdraw the complaint. The anti-ragging cell wrote to the college authorities to identify and counsel the victim so that he feels safe. SP (Berhampur), Saravana Vivek M, said they are conducting a separate inquiry into the incident. "We will register a case if the incident turns out to be serious as per ragging guidelines," he said.
