What are some of the Interesting/Crazy stories at IIIT - Allahabad?
One of my friends told a story of IIIT Allahabad. It was in his 7th semester when this took place. We were just done with the farewell. He was presenting his end-semester project, and a batchmate called him and told him that there was a surprise check in the hostel. A friend wanted him to come to the hostel immediately.
He hurried up his presentation and ran to the hostel. When he reached, Karan and Raif were in the warden's room. He entered and Virender lined up 5-6 liquor bottles on the table. He pointed to 2-3 bottles kept on the floor and told them that they found this and the 5-6 bottles in his room. He also found a bucket that was filled with green water and some green matter on the top. The table was black from the ash, and the floor was littered with cigarette buds.
He goes on to lecture them about cleanliness and how he wanted them out of the hostel. This resulted in begging and pleading. Karan got pissed and started lashing out at Virender on how the cleaning guy is careless. My friend and Raif somehow stopped his yelling and got back to begging. It was their final month anyway since they had to go to their internships.
He finally relents and gives them an hour or something to clean everything up. So they go upstairs and start the cleaning themselves. He was using a broom and cleaning everything, carelessly. Karan yelled why are you using broom like that (using curse words), and at that moment another batchmate walked in who incidentally was nicknamed 'broom' and got offended and started using curse words as well.
The situation was hilarious and was one of the craziest moments we witnessed in IIIT Allahabad.
