KANPUR: The IIT-Kanpur senate on Monday suspended 22 second-year B.Tech students for a period ranging from one to a few years for ragging. Sixteen students had been suspended for three years, and 6 for a yr.
They will have the ability to resume research simplest after their suspension period ends.
The senate took the verdict in the presence of director Professor Indranil Manna and deputy director Professor Manindra Agarwal. However, it made up our minds against filing police proceedings as that will have jeopardised the students' long term career possibilities.
The punishment followed allegations through students who joined the institute this July that they had been compelled to strip through seniors. They filed a mass complaint in August. The probe committee had found the charges to be true, and beneficial the suspension of all 22 students+ . The senate, in its last meeting on September 21 and 22, had authorised the suggestions.
Talking to TOI, Professor Agarwal mentioned, "These students will not be allowed to stay on campus and can resume studies when their suspension ends. The decision taken today would send a strong message to students to say no to ragging and maintain decorum".
