“One more student was let off with a stern warning. Action against the three nursing students has been taken following a complaint of ragging against them by a junior student of nursing,” said Dr Jeewan Ram Bishnoi, a spokesperson from AIIMS, Jodhpur.

According to the complaint, the alleged ragging incident occurred during a meeting of nursing students on February 15 to prepare for the freshers’ party at the college. The first-year student approached the AIIMS administration regarding some comments made by the three senior students.
