Every year, the Anti-Ragging Committee is established, and it employs a number of preventative measures to stop ragging on the college campus. It guarantees that, in accordance with the Honorable Supreme Court of India's directions, all UGCpoliciespertaining to reducing the threat of ragging in higher educational institutions are put into effect. The complaint boxes are positioned in the College in prominent and useful locations. The College has become a strict no-ragging zone as a result of the installation of CCTV cameras at various locations, the constant vigilance of male and female security guards, as well as teaching and non-teaching staff members, who follow the principal’s instructions and make rounds in the different areas of the College. Punishment of ragging is suspension or expulsion or cancellation of Degree or Penal Action.

Ordinance XV-C has laid down rules regarding prohibition and punishment for ragging:

• The student engaging in ragging may be expelled for a set period of time if any incident of ragging is reported to the Vice-Chancellor by any authority.
• Non-students involved in any ragging incident shall be prosecuted in accordance with Indian criminal law. They will lose their right to apply for enrollment in any university of Delhi institution for a five-year period.

According to the Ordinance, the College Principal is empowered to act right away if she receives any information of ragging. If a student is proven to be ragging freshers, then he/she may be expelled, rusticated for a set amount of time, or their exam results may be annulled.
