A second-year MBBS student from Kashmir attending Al Ameen College in Karnataka reported being beaten and harassed by a group of senior students.
“I have discussed this unfortunate event with @CMofKarnataka @siddaramaiah ji. He assured me that an FIR has been registered and necessary actions will be taken. The four students identified as responsible for this ragging and assault have been recognized,” Abdullah shared on X.
