Himachal Pradesh University to Implement New Security Measures in Hostels
In an effort to address violent incidents in university hostels, particularly boys’ hostels, and create a better educational environment, Chief Warden Prof. R.L. Jinta led a significant meeting on Friday. The session brought together officials from the Construction and Maintenance Board, wardens, the Security Officer, and non-teaching hostel staff to develop an action plan for the upcoming session, with a focus on enhancing security.
One of the key decisions made was to install CCTV cameras at new strategic locations within the hostels. This move aims to provide continuous surveillance and deter any potential misconduct. Additionally, the university will ensure the presence of at least two police personnel and security staff at each hostel entrance to prevent unauthorized entry.
Prof. Jinta emphasized the importance of strict action against students who break hostel rules, underscoring the commitment to maintaining discipline. These comprehensive measures are designed to create a safer and more conducive environment for students to pursue their academic goals.
