According to a resident of the hall, last week Sunday, precisely at 2:30 am, a male individual was seen lurking around and entering a room in Block H. Fortunately, no one was harmed, but the incident left the room’s occupants deeply disturbed.

Another resident shared concerns about the hostel’s safety measures, stating that this incident marked the fourth occurrence this semester.
