JNUSU accuses university of infrastructure neglect; demands hostel audit

The Jawaharlal Nehru University Students’ Union (JNUSU) on Wednesday accused the university administration of “continued negligence” in maintaining basic infrastructure, alleging that a ceiling fan collapsed in a room in the university’s Tapti hostel on Tuesday night.

In a statement on Wednesday, the JNUSU said, “Last night, a ceiling fan collapsed in a room at Tapti Hostel. Fortunately, no students were present at the time, but this could easily have resulted in serious injury or death.”
