DU Students Can Stay in Hostels Till Sept End Says UGC

New Delhi: Delhi University (DU) students can prolong their stay in hostels till September end, according to University Grants Commission (UGC). Students are asked to vacate the hostels two or three days before the end of September. Earlier, the plan was that the students had to vacate the room on Wednesday i.e. on September 15, 2010, in order to accommodate the guests during Commonwealth Games.
 
The plan has been changed as the guests of Commonwealth Games are expected to arrive by October 1. The games will be commencing from October 3, 2010 till October 14, 2010. The university will remain closed during this period.
 
DU affiliated various colleges had gone through renovation work in order to make them ready to serve the guests during the Commonwealth Games. Thereafter, several colleges had not allowed their students to join back the hostels after their vacations had ended.
 
As per sources, the UGC and the organizing committee of the Commonwealth Games had faced criticism for their decision of accommodating the guests in DU hostels.
