BHOPAL: Despite a Supreme Court order against ragging in educational institutions, incidents of harassment of students continue. A Delhi girl, along with a batchmate from Agra, has been admitted to hospital after she collapsed during a ragging session at an institute here on Wednesday night. Just a few days ago a first-year student at Delhi’s St Stephen’s College sustained burn injuries on his hands and knees, and a fresher suffered multiple fractures after he was pushed from the first floor of his engineering college hostel in Agra. MP police have registered a case against eight senior girl students of the Institute of Hotel Management in Bhopal after the two freshers collapsed. The two students have been admitted to a private hospital. However, as with the colleges in Delhi and Agra, institute authorities here have gone into denial mode, terming it an altercation over a fashion show
