Be a Buddy, Not a Bully | I²IT Observes Anti-Ragging Week

  • 12–18 August 2026

At I²IT, creating a safe, respectful, and inclusive campus is a collective responsibility. The National #AntiRagging Day and Week were observed across the campus from 12 to 18 August 2026, with students and faculty coming together to reinforce the message of “Be a #Buddy, Not a #Bully.”

The week brought together a range of engaging awareness activities, including #selfie corners, poster-making competitions, #quizzes, #reel competitions, and #slogan competitions, giving students creative platforms to express their thoughts on building a ragging-free campus. The campus was filled with powerful messages promoting #respect, #empathy, #friendship, #dignity, #support, and #responsible #behaviour.

Through these activities, I²IT students reinforced an important message: ragging has no place in a campus that believes in mutual respect and meaningful relationships. Senior students are #mentors and #role models, and every student deserves an environment where they can learn, grow, and thrive without fear or humiliation.

The Anti-Ragging Week was a meaningful reminder that we don’t just study together—we grow together. Let us continue to choose kindness, speak up against ragging, support one another, and build a #campus culture where respect is the norm and every student feels valued.

Say NO to Ragging. Say YES to Respect.

Be a Buddy, Not a Bully.

SKILLING INDIA : ENHANCING EMPLOYABILITY QUOTIENT

Mrs Aruna M Katara, President, Hope Foundation and Research Center (Hope Foundation) was welcomed as one of the panelists at The Times Vice-Chancellors’ Conclave. She spoke about how today’s education must transcend the class, moving away from conventional methods of rote learning and focus on honing skills that the industry is looking at.

She emphasized that the teaching-learning process should focus on enhancing employability quotient inculcating values of professionalism and commitment. The idea is to focus on academics that ought to focus on a more practical learning rather than merely theoretical approach.
