Students of Dayanand Sagar university protest against poor hostel facilities at Harohalli campus in Bengaluru

Students at Dayanand Sagar University's Harohalli campus staged a protest on Tuesday night against poor hostel conditions, citing multiple unresolved issues including non-functional Wi-Fi, lack of hot water, contaminated drinking water, and sanitation problems affecting over 5,000 students. The students claimed they had raised these concerns for nearly a month and were previously promised resolution by August 31. Despite repeated reports to hostel authorities and the university administration, the issues remain unaddressed. When contacted, the university's Vice-Chancellor acknowledged some problems but stated that efforts are underway to resolve them.
