Dear All,

For past couple of years, PG boys have got single rooms at least in their second year, if not in the first. But PG girls are not getting similar treatment. In H11, there are many 2nd and 3rd year students who still dont have single room. First year PG students are also staying in double rooms and sometimes even doubled up in single room. In H10, all second year PGs are still staying in double rooms. This inequality is very unfair as compared to conditions of PG boys, but the institute is refusing to recognize this as a "problem". We are planning to do a silent protest on March 16th wearing black mouth-masks and carrying placards. If you support the cause, and are interested to join the silent protest, please contact us.
