Society Against Violence in Education (SAVE) is a non profit organisation working against violations of human rights in the name of ragging in India.[1][2]

SAVE is possibly the only registered Anti Ragging NGO in India, till May, 2008.[3]

It is mainly composed of young professionals and students from various fields[1][2][4]

Formation

Ragging has been taking a huge toll of innocent lives and careers for long. But there had been no single civil movement against the evil of ragging. There were websites and online groups, from where some conscientious youths gave birth to a non profit organisation, which later came to fame in the name of the "No Ragging Foundation". Later, the No Ragging Foundation was registered as the Society Against Violence in Education (SAVE).[5]
