ragging is done by seniors to the freshers.but it always don't remain fun,sometimes becomes dangerous for someone. some do ragging just for their introduction,some for fun,while other do it to show their superiority.ragging is not liked by everyone,some feel ambarresed and try to commit suicide but others like to introduce themselves to seniors and therefore prefer it.some ragging is done in such a way that it causes severe injury or might causes death.so what do you think of ragging?should it be done or not?if yes,what kind?

In most of the cases, ragging turn in to more than harassment. SC has taken note of it and has issue orders for strictest measures to be taken. Registration of FIR has been made compulsory. Seniors charged with ragging will be expelled from the college and there will no future education for them.

Ragging was like a passage from having to learn to WANTING to learn.It has beena long time since I have had to go through an initiation but I remember it was a one-day only event and it was never done to humiliate or scar someone.In High School,you knew that on that day if you were a freshman and went to a particular area of the school,you were going to get wet in the creek nearby.But that was it.One day and it was over.It was more for fun than anything else.

no its not ne'er a fun. 1 it may be considered as a mode to wash off your shyness 2it may be considered as a means to make u bold 3it may even improve your communication skills but all these depend on the person who does it,if he/she is sadistic your gonna see how dangerous they can make it
