GURGAON: A second-year student of a government college in Pataudi is undergoing treatment in ICU, allegedly after being thrashed by six seniors on the campus.
The youth’s father alleged that his son was attacked during a ragging session. Police, however, ruled it out, saying they were probing why the students came to blows.
Three of the six senior students were arrested, but were released on bail.
Chander Shekhar’s father Ashok Kumar, who identified himself as a social activist, said his son was attacked around 11am.
“On Thursday, my son had gone to Noida to take the National Talent Search Examination (NTSE) and returned home late. So, the next day, he said he would go to college only to download the admit card for an Air Force test. Around noon, we were informed that he had been attacked by a few seniors. I rushed to the college, took my injured son to the police station and then to a hospital,” he told TOI.
Kumar said his son was never involved in any scuffle in college and was being ragged when it turned violent. Chander, who suffered grievous injuries near the right eye, was admitted to the Pataudi Civil Hospital, where he is under observation in the ICU.
“It is a sheer case of ragging. The senior students attacked him to establish authority over my son. He is preparing for the Army and does not get into confrontation easily,” he added.
Following a complaint by Kumar, an FIR was registered against Risky, Dipu, Aakash, Harsh, Abhishek, Yogesh, and others.
