Three first-year postgraduate students of Muzaffarnagar Medical College, Begrajpur were suspended for a month and fined Rs 25,000 each for allegedly misbehaving with a hostel warden, an official said on Saturday.

Urging the college management to roll back its decision, several first year students held a protest and also submitted a memorandum to the additional district magistrate. The three suspended students too staged a sit-in.

However, the college management has issued notices to the three directing them to vacate the hostel.
