India Today
The bathroom ceiling inside a hostel at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) fell on the head of a second year student on Thursday morning.
The bathroom ceiling inside the Sabarmati Hostel in Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) fell on the head of a second-year student on Thursday morning.
The student suffered injuries and was taken to the Safdarjung Hospital for treatment.
The victim is a second-year BA student in German languages.
"This is a clear case of criminal negligence on the part of the Hostel Wardens and the Dean of Students. We have time and again brought the issue of dilapidated hostel infrastructure and falling ceilings to the concerned authorities, but the JNU administration has been trying to digress the issue in the name of lack of funds,” All India Students' Association activist, Madhurima Kundu, said.
