In a big decision after an investigation into allegations of threat culture, money laundering, and ragging, R. G. Kar Medical College and Hospital in West Bengal's capital city, Kolkata, on Saturday expelled ten people.

Those expelled include doctors, house staff, and interns for allegedly threatening others to fail examinations or get them ousted from the hostel, forcing other juniors to join a particular political party, sexual harassment and misconduct, forceful collection of money, lodging of false FIRs against students, and physical violence.

The list of expelled people includes Ashish Pandey, a house staff member close to former R G Kar principal Sandip Ghosh, who was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in connection with financial irregularities and paper leaks.
