After Ragging Death, 1st-Year Students Get Separate Hostels At Jadavpur University

One of the two hostels has already been opened, and students have started moving in, he said.

The state-run Jadavpur University in Kolkata has set up two new hostels on its main campus for first-year undergraduate students, nearly a year after the death of a fresher following alleged ragging, an official said on Thursday.

One of the two hostels has already been opened, and students have started moving in, he said.

While the one made functional has 70 beds, the other one that will be opened shortly will have 50 beds, he added.
