Following a viral video of hostel ragging, the JNV administration is under scrutiny for safety lapses. The school has formed an inquiry committee to identify the five students involved in the belt assault. While the school claims mobile phones are officially banned, many students are reported to possess them secretly. Officials cited privacy concerns for the lack of CCTV in private quarters. This incident has sparked calls for better student protection across state-run hostels in Jharkhand.
