Agra: A shocking case of ragging has surfaced at SN Medical College, Agra, where an MBBS student alleged that senior students assaulted him and later attacked his brother when he intervened. The police have registered a case and are investigating the matter.

Details of the Incident

The victim, Ramkumar, a 2023 batch MBBS student from Khajuria village, Hathras, stated that on 1 January 2026, while parking his car in the hostel premises, four senior students – Suraj Chaudhary, Rituraj Jatav, Gautam Baderia, and Vivek – approached him and began ragging him. They allegedly pressured him to get into a vehicle. When he refused, they physically assaulted him.

In response, Ramkumar called his brother, Lakhan Kumar, who resides in Agra. According to reports, the senior students then attacked his brother as well. Following the incident, Ramkumar filed a complaint at MM Gate Police Station, naming all four students for ragging and assault.

Investigation Underway

According to DCP City Syed Ali Abbas, while ragging has been alleged, preliminary findings suggest that the incident may also involve mutual altercation among students. The police are reviewing CCTV footage from the hostel, which shows the events occurred around 9:15 PM.

College Response

SN Medical College Principal Dr. Prashant Gupta stated that the proctorial board has recorded statements from the accused students.
