Yamunanagar:
Sher Singh and Gaurav are first year students at the Guru Nanak Khalsa College in Yamunanagar and they allege they were ragged by seniors at the college canteen.
And caught in the melee was one of their friends Daler, who had been to the college to enquire about admissions.
The three were sitting in the canteen when a group of seniors came and asked them to strip before girl students.
They refused after which they were attacked with bricks and knifes. The freshers sustained minor injuries but their friend Daler was stabbed. He's now in hospital.
"We were in the canteen when some seniors asked us to strip and walk in front of everyone. We refused so they started beating us," said Sher Singh, Daler's friend.
"We refused saying why should we do this so they started hitting us, threatened to shoot us," recalls Gaurav Malik, another friend of Daler's.
Relatives of the victims are outraged and want action against the guilty.
"We want justice. We have sent our children to study and not to face this," said Jagdev Singh, uncle of the student.
.
But college authorities say no such incident happened on campus.
"The incident never happened in the college, it may have happened outside. There is no question of any raging taking place inside college," said Virendra Kaur, College Principal.
A police case has been registered but no arrest has so far been made.
"We are looking into it, at the moment we have registered a case of assault and stabbing but if we find it to be ragging we will add other sections as well," said Ajit Singh, SHO, Yamananagar.
