Ragging or Sexual harassment in any form is strictly prohibited within the premises of the Amogha institute, or in any part of its constituent system. Anti-Ragging and Anti-Sexual harassment squads are highly vigilant in the college campus, hostels, cafeteria and all other areas including lawns and class rooms and outside the campus.  Any individual or collective act found guilty of practicing ragging or committing sexual harassment are dealt with as per the directions of the Hon’ble Supreme Court and the guidelines issued by the University Grants Commission (UGC).

Ragging & sexual harassment are now defined as an act that violets or is perceived to violate an individual’s dignity. It has ruined countless innocent lives and careers.  Ragging shall ordinarily mean any act, conduct or practice by which the dominant power or status of senior students is brought upon the students where in any way considered junior or inferior by the former and includes individual or collective acts or practices which:

  • Involve physical assault or threat to use physical force.
  • Violate the status, dignity and honour of students, in particular, women students and those belonging to scheduled caste or a scheduled tribe.
  • Expose students to ridicule or contempt or commit an act which may lower their self esteem.
  • Entail verbal abuse, mental or physical torture, aggression, corporal punishment, harassment, trauma, indecent gesture and obscene behaviour.
  • All students are required to note that they are prohibited from engaging in any form of ragging. Based on the directions of the Hon’ble Supreme Court, the UGC framed the “UGC Regulations on curbing the menace of ragging in Higher Educational Institutions, 2009”.

The aim of the Regulations is to prohibit, prevent and eliminate the scourge of ragging including any conduct by any student or students whether by words spoken or written or by an act which has the effect of teasing, treating or handling with rudeness a fresher or any other student, or indulging in rowdy or undisciplined activities by any student or students which causes or is likely to cause annoyance, hardship or psychological harm or to raise fear or apprehension thereof in any fresher or any other student or asking any student to do any act which such student will not in the ordinary course do and which has the effect of causing or generating a sense of shame, or torment or embarrassment so as to adversely affect the physique or psyche of such fresher or any other student, with or without an intent to derive a sadistic pleasure or showing off power, authority or superiority by a student over any fresher or any other student, in all higher education institutions in the country, and thereby, to provide for the healthy development, physically and psychologically, of all students.
