KGMU Constitutes Six‑Member Disciplinary Panel to Probe STF Conversion and Harassment Report

The panel will examine the STF’s findings, consider faculty objections, and recommend disciplinary or departmental measures under university statutes.

Overview

  • King George’s Medical University’s Executive Council unanimously appointed a six-member Disciplinary Action Committee to examine the Special Task Force report on alleged religious conversion and harassment on campus.
  • Under Clause 11.11 of KGMU statutes the panel will include the vice chancellor, the registrar, two senior serving faculty members and two independent senior administrative officers with preference for retired IPS officers.
  • The STF report alleges a conversion racket, complaints of harassment and pressure to convert by some doctors, and cites the January 9, 2026 arrest of resident doctor Rameez Uddin Nayak as part of its findings.
  • Several university staff have objected to their names appearing in the STF observations and the Executive Council has referred those representations to relevant departmental committees for separate examination.
  • The committee’s review and its recommendations will determine whether university-level disciplinary action is taken and could prompt further legal or administrative steps, with political voices already contesting the STF’s methods and conclusions.
