Look after pupils’ belongings, ABVP asks authorities

Chandigarh, September 8

The Panjab University ABVP unit circulated a picture of a termite-infested room at one of the hostels through the social media on Tuesday. However, the name of the hostel or exact location of the room was not revealed.

Campus ABVP president Harish Gujjar said the authorities should take care of the students’ belongings kept in the rooms.

“The university authorities cannot enter rooms. Such issues will obviously emerge as rooms have been locked for almost 6 months. Students are free to collect their belongings after submission of a written request. However, the hostels cannot be opened considering the rise in Covid cases. The picture circulated has no details and no such complaint was received,” said one of the officials, seeking anonymity. — TNS
