"What Kind Of Director Is He?": Court Fumes Over IIT Kharagpur Ragging
NDTV
The Calcutta High Court summoned the Director of IIT Kharagpur to the next hearing on December 20.
The Director of the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kharagpur was excoriated for the second time in weeks by the Calcutta High Court on Thursday, as it slammed him for trying to cover up the college's inaction on a ragging complaint which was followed by the death of a student on campus.
"Have you indicated what action has been taken in the report? Why is the Director giving a lecture here? There was a complaint received and all the wardens did was warn them (students)," the court said, when a report by the college on the action taken based on a ragging complaint was read out.
"We asked for a report on what he has done. He has done nothing... We asked your client to name the students. The court asked you to name students involved," the judges said.
"We could not identify the students," the lawyer for IIT Kharagpur replied.
