The GMCH authorities had already suspended the six interns and had also told them to leave the hostel. The incident of ragging however had taken place in April this year. But the ragged student sent a video allegedly of the incident last month to the central Anti-Ragging Committee and made a written complaint too.
Sources at GMCH told The Live Nagpur that now a new angle has emerged in the issue. Some students from the hostel as well as the affected student have written a letter to authorities saying that no ragging happened in the hostel.
