I will always remember Dr. Priya Ranjan not only as the Chairman of JK Monitor, but as a mentor, guide and elder brother whose kindness shaped my life and work. Write a tribute at SRINAGAR: The Jammu and Kashmir Students Association (JKSA) on Thursday expressed its sincere gratitude to Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah for his swift intervention and prompt action in ensuring justice for Hamim, the Kashmiri MBBS student who was brutally ragged and assaulted at Al-Ameen Medical College, Bijapur, Karnataka. The Chief Minister’s decisive response reinforces the message that such atrocities will not be tolerated.
National Convenor of Association, Nasir Khuehami, stated that the concerned SSP has confirmed that an FIR has been registered, and all five accused have been arrested, ensuring justice is served. A case has been registered under Sections 115(2), 329(4), 352, 351(2), 189(2), 191(2), and 190 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), along with Section 116 of the Karnataka Education Act, 1983, under Crime No. 87 at Vijayapura Rural Police Station. The investigation is ongoing, and JKSA is closely monitoring the developments to ensure strict action is taken against the perpetrators.
The Association also extended its gratitude to Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah for personally taking up the matter with his Karnataka counterpart, ensuring that it received urgent attention at the highest level. Such coordination is crucial in safeguarding the well-being of students, particularly those studying outside their home state.
A strong precedent has been set—ragging, bullying, and any form of intimidation will not be tolerated. Such incidents must not be ignored or brushed under the carpet. Educational institutions must remain spaces of learning, growth, and inclusivity—free from fear, intimidation, and violence, Khuehami emphasized.
The Association also thanked the Chief Minister’s Advisor, Nasir Sogami, for his immediate response and for ensuring that the Hon’ble Chief Minister swiftly intervened, bringing the issue to the attention of the highest authorities.
Karnataka Home Minister Dr. G. Parameshwara, while addressing the media on the incident of the Kashmiri student being ragged and assaulted—an issue raised by JKSA—said that the incident is very unfortunate. An FIR has been registered, and all the accused have been arrested. There are clear instructions that ragging must not take place in educational institutions.
As per the law, anti-ragging committees must be established in every institution. If such a committee is not in place, the institution must be instructed to comply immediately. The college has been directed to initiate an institutional inquiry to ensure such incidents do not occur in the future. Such acts will not be tolerated under any circumstances.”
Khuehami further said that Ragging is a crime—it must be eliminated from educational institutions. Any form of bullying or coercion must be dealt with firmly. Campuses should foster learning, inclusivity, and respect—not fear and violence. Those responsible for such acts must face strict disciplinary consequences, including immediate expulsion, to set a clear precedent.”
