Group clash erupts at Cuttack college over smoking ganja

CUTTACK: Tension prevailed at the Netaji Subhas Memorial City College in Rajabagicha here on Monday after a clash broke out on campus between two groups of students allegedly over smoking ganja. At least three students sustained injuries in the incident.

While one group involved some Plus III and former students, the other comprised mostly Plus II. Police sources said some Plus III students accompanied by a few outsiders allegedly forced the others to smoke ganja. However as they refused, an argument broke out between both the parties which escalated into a clash.

As per sources, some former and Plus III students of the college besides outsiders run a WhatsApp group in the name of ‘Black Brothers’. The group members allegedly engage in various antisocial activities including eve-teasing and creating nuisance on the campus.
