I have been staying here for six months now. Initially, I felt very good, because the hostel was just as expected. But since last two weeks, we have been facing some problems due to indiscipline. Earlier, the warden was very supportive, so life in the hostel was wonderful and enjoyable too. But since the new warden has taken charge, things have changed. All of us are very upset. For example, last week, some students were playing loud music. It was very disturbing. We were unable to concentrate on our studies. The other day, my roommate lost his money. Today, some other boy lost his notes. We have complained to our principal. We hope that things will be sorted out soon. 102
