About the Anti-Ragging Cell

Mandate, Authority & Legal Framework

The Anti-Ragging Cell is an integral component of JR Institute of Medical Science's institutional mechanism. As per the guidelines of the University Grants Commission (UGC) under the UGC Act, 1956, as modified by the UGC Regulations on Curbing the Menace of Ragging in Higher Educational Institutions, 2009, the establishment of an Anti-Ragging Cell is mandatory for all higher educational institutions across India. This Cell ensures the physical, psychological and academic safety of every student on campus.
📜 Legal Backing — UGC Regulations 2009 & Supreme Court The Supreme Court of India in Vishwa Jagriti Mission vs. Central Government (2001) and subsequent UGC Regulations 2009 mandate that every institution constitute an Anti-Ragging Committee, an Anti-Ragging Squad, and a Monitoring Cell. Institutions found non-compliant risk withdrawal of affiliation, grants, and recognition. All students and their parents must submit a mandatory anti-ragging affidavit at the time of admission each academic year.
