Mysuru: In the wake of a series of complaints from parents, lecturers and fellow students, the University of Mysore (UoM) has decided to crack the whip on hostel unruliness and has prepared a 33-point guideline for implementation. “The rules will be implemented immediately,” said Prof. B. Basavaraju, the In-Charge Vice-Chancellor. Explaining the decisions taken by the authorities, the VC said that the University has a 100-year illustrious history. “So far, the hostels have remained uncontrolled. This must stop and we have to maintain the dignity of the University,” he said. What made the Vice-Chancellor to frame the guidelines? “Last week, I visited the hostels in Manasagangothri and also examined CCTV footages. I was shocked to see students entering the hostel beyond 10 pm and 11 pm. Many students were found indulging in unruly behaviour in the corridors and shockingly, some of them were in an inebriated state,” the VC said.
