And we are back! Back, with the sequel of what we did in Gauhati University Campus on our drive against ragging. This time, it was taken to Cotton College on 18th September when it’s the Freshers’ Social season over here. We performed a street play expressing how young minds can get tortured with ragging and how it can get things just go haywire in the victim’s life after that incident! Comics in different formats, posters, booklets, and wallposters were distributed among the huge college crowd that gathered there and were pasted up on the trees, walls, pillars, doors and any place that we could find.The students in the crowd were overwhelmed to see their contemporaries raising a question on the culture of the so-called “introduction” between the juniors and seniors that could take an ugly shape…
Though our small endeavour cannot promise a change- but it has certainly brought out different emotions among the people regarding ragging who have been through it or have seen it around them- atleast the thinking wheels have started churning in that direction now!
good luck 4 all d members of New Ways and may we do more of this sort in d future....hip hip hurray
