Anti-Ragging Policy
At Kalaivanar N.S.K. Polytechnic College (KNSKPT), we are fully committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and respectful learning environment for all our students. In accordance with the directives of the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India, the college maintains a zero-tolerance policy towards ragging in any form.
🚫 What Constitutes Ragging?
Ragging includes any behavior that results in:

- Intimidation or abuse (verbal or written)
- Forced activities (whether academic, physical, or cultural)
- Public embarrassment or humiliation
- Disruption of normal life, studies, or routine in the name of "introduction" or "initiation"
Whether inside the college campus, hostel, transport, or even on social media, all forms of ragging are strictly prohibited and punishable.
🛡️ Anti-Ragging Measures in Place

- Orientation Programs: Awareness sessions for freshers and seniors about the dangers, consequences, and legal implications of ragging.
- Affidavit Submission: As mandated by AICTE, every student and parent must submit an anti-ragging affidavit at the time of admission.
