Fake Ragging Mail at Kurnool Medical College; Senior Student Sent Home

Kurnool: Authorities at Kurnool Medical College said no ragging incident occurred on campus after a complaint email triggered concern last week.

College principal Dr Lakshmi Chitti Narasamma said a first-year student’s name was used to send an email alleging ragging, prompting a police inquiry. Speaking along with CI Sridhar, she said the investigation found the email to be fake.

Police identified a senior student who allegedly sent the complaint due to personal differences with fellow seniors. The college administration has sent the student home from the hostel.

The principal assured parents that no ragging incidents had occurred and appealed to senior students to act responsibly and maintain a supportive environment for juniors.
