Due to ragging and student struggles, many students have sacrificed their lives plus have become preys of this harassment.
In 1997 the death of Waraprakash who died of a kidney failure due to the rag. Again in 1997 the death of the first year girl who suicide due to the harassments caused in the rag. Also Kalum Thushara Wijethunge who died in the same year, in the Ampara Technological Institute. He was made to drink alcohol and badly harassed resulting in his death due to a kidney failure.
In 2005 Sampath Wimala Tissa Bandara of Gangodawila was murdered while Priyantha Ranasinghe was stabbed by a knife.
H.M.S P. Samarasinghe scholar was shot to death by an unidentified gang in August 22, 2008 in the Eastern University when he was in the Wandaramulla Hostel premises. Again in 2009 February 27th, Niruja Thalabalasingham suicide in the Girls Hostel by hanging. In the same year Sudarsana Ravindran set fire to herself in the bathroom in the Girls Hostel.
Also in the 87-88 terror more than 300 students became easy preys due to political instability.
In 1975, Peradeniya University was the first to report a major ragging related incident when Rupa Ratnaseeli, a fresher of the Faculty of Agriculture became paralyzed as a result of having jumped from the second floor of the hostel to escape the physical ragging being carried out by the seniors. She later committed suicide in 1997.
Related information and statistics are almost impossible to come by in recognition of the magnitude of the problem, the Sri Lankan Parliament passed a Bill in 1998 entitled the Prohibition of Ragging and Other Forms of Violence in Educational Institutions. Under this, ragging is defined as “any act which causes or is likely to cause physical or psychological injury or mental pain or fear to a student or a staff member”. The Act makes ragging a distinct and punishable offence under which any individual found guilty would be subjected to two years rigorous imprisonment, ten years if the rag were to lead to sexual harassment or grievous hurt. In addition, depending on the gravity of the offense, students found guilty could face expulsion from the University.
More than ten years after this law became effective however, ragging continues.
In 2002, O V Samantha, (Samantha Vithanage) a third year Management student at the Sri Jayawardenapura University, pioneered an anti-ragging campaign in the University in an attempt to stop the practice. On November 7th that year, the anti-ragging campaigners sat down for a discussion with the JVP controlled student council who defended the practice. Midway through the discussion, a mob of around 200 JVP supporters armed with clubs and stones stormed into the room and viciously attacked Vithanage and others in the anti-ragging camp. The attackers stabbed their victims with shards of glass and Vithanage who was struck, fell to the floor and had a computer monitor dropped on his head. Two days later he died.
