Ahmedabad (Gujarat): Even as Chennai has pledged to curb the menace of ragging in colleges, other cities are stepping forward and doing their bit.

In Ahmedabad, two postgraduate medical students at the V S Hospital have been suspended after they were accused of ragging a junior.

Tarek Patel and Prakash Sharda allegedly beat up their junior, Dr Mittal Dave. Dave has lodged a complaint with the local police.

The medical college, earlier acting on Dave's complaint, had initiated an internal enquiry into the incident.

This is not the first incident of ragging reported from V S Hospital. Several students have reportedly dropped out after being ragged by their seniors.
