Six medical students were evicted from the Goa Medical College hostel, located near Panaji, for ragging, a top official said Thursday.

GMC Medical Superintendent Rajan Kuncolienkar told reporters that the institute's anti-ragging committee had decided to evict six student from the hostel for ragging in the medical college's residential facility.

'The management has also lodged a formal complaint with the local police station. We are acting as per law,' Kuncolienkar said.
