BHU Forms Committee to Look Into the Issue on Hostel Accommodation Shortage

New Delhi: Banaras Hindu University (BHU) is in the process of addressing the issue of the shortage of hostel accommodation and has formed a committee to evaluate and recommend properties outside the BHU campus, which are offering accommodation facilities.

 Although a large number of students stay on campus, not all BHU students get an accommodation and settle for hostels available outside the campus. 

To meet the crisis of proper accommodation for students, BHU has formed a committee which will visit the hostels outside of campus and investigate the living conditions of the students. 

Professor Ramesh Chand, Advisor, Banaras Hindu University, is the chairman of the committee. Dr Seema Tiwari (Hostel Coordinator, Mahila Mahavidyalaya), Dr Vijay Kumar Sonker (Department of MHG, Institute of Science), Dr Ashish Gupta (Faculty of Visual Arts) and Dr Priyanka Jha (Student Advisor, Faculty of Social Sciences), are the members of the committee.

They will evaluate several aspects like cleanliness, basic amenities, security, ambience, surroundings, distance from the university, connectivity, rent, other charges, food quality and any other important criteria to make recommendations or suggestions for accreditation to the said premises. The recommendations made by the committee will not be binding on the students and they will be free to pick any accommodation of their choosing.

While this process is underway, BHU is currently making alternative arrangements such as converting other buildings into hostels for time being, so as to provide at least some respite to those who need it the most. "The recommendations made by the committee will not be binding on the students and they will be free to pick any accommodation of their choosing," said the BHU statement.
