BIT student accuses seniors of ragging him

A student of Birla Institute of Technology (BIT), Sindri here has lodged an FIR against four senior students charging them with ragging, hours after the authorities debarred him from appearing  in mid- semester for his alleged misbehaviour with a girl student.

The disciplinary committee found the second-year student, Asutosh Kumar, guilty of misbehaving with a girl student on Thursday and debarred him from appearing the mid-semester. It also asked him to vacate the hostel immediately, the institute's director, S K Singh, said over the phone on Saturday.
   
The disciplinary committee met yesterday after 100 girl students complained that Kumar had +misbehaved+ with one of the girls. The committee also warned Kumar that he would be rusticated if he failed to mend his behaviour, Singh said.

Kumar, however, filed an FIR with the police charging four senior hostel students with beating him up and forced him to do certain unnatural offence when he went to hostel last night, the sources in the police outpost at Gosala, where the FIR was lodged, said. They, however, refused to elaborate on the unnatural offence part.
   
Decribing the FIR could be a ploy to cover his offence allegedly committed in the institute, the director said the disciplinary committee had also marked a black dot when Kumar was in the first year following an alleged indiscipline
act then.
