Well , it does help, provided its not meant to harm.
Ragging makes the juniors and seniors bond together very quickly IMO.
And it is sorta fun, if u can enjoy it and not be afraid.

Ragging is very much needed to break the ice between the seniors and juniors. But it should be within the limits of decency.

I too was ragged. Me and few other freshers were told to enact a wedding scene. But it was just for that moment.

Its not as if the top colleges dont have ragging.Even IIT's & NIT's used to have ragging(not sure abt now;but still exists even if mild)

Breaking ice is quite ok. But breaking other things - not ok !

2 yrs back, in Kottayam (Kerala), three or four A**** seniors ragged a girl in a lab room which was closed. Want to know the limit ? They raped her. The main guy was relative of the Principal of the college. Anyway police arrested all those guys. Not sure the present status.

BTW, That incident was sad. Such B@st**ds should be hung to death.
