New Delhi, Feb 21 (UNI) The Raghavan Committee on ragging set up on an order of the Supreme Court will visit Chennai tomorrow to hold public discussion on the issue.

The Committee will also examine and consider all aspects relating to the conduct of students indulging in the practice, such as aspects affecting the academic atmosphere in educational institutions.

At Chennai tomorrow, the committee will hold sitting from 10.30 hrs onwards in the Pine Hall, Hotel Savera, Room No. 146, Radhakrishnan road.

All the interested persons may attend and voice their suggestions and comments. Such persons are also requested to give their representations in writing.
