Then imagine tier 3/4 college students what they are going through.. why government and colleges is not taking legal actions against this kind of mental students?? Imagine 10/15 boys are harassing you and beating you through belt , in the future he might will be case of depression and anxiety and he might will be committe suside then who's fault is that ?? College or government or that students who are harassing him ?? The Indian government should take serious actions for ragging and harassment in college (sic).”
