Two second-year MBBS students of the Grant Government Medical College have been suspended from their hostel for a year after they were allegedly found to be drunk and ragging a junior, an official said on Friday.

The incident took place this week at a hostel on the medical college campus in south Mumbai after classes of the first-year students began, the official said.

The accused students, who were allegedly drunk, had asked a fresher to dance, he said.

The incident was brought to the notice of the medical college’s anti-ragging committee on Thursday, which then decided to suspend the two students from their hostel for a year, he added.
