The hostel has been undergoing renovations for the last three years and the authorities missed the August 1 deadline to shift students. After compiling all the signatures, we will make a deputation to Governor Keshari Nath Tripathi and state Education Minister Partha Chatterjee,” said Arindam Dolai, general secretary of Presidency University Students’ Union. We will collect signatures from present students, former students and members of civil society..
