Mangaluru: Students of School of Nursing of Government Wenlock Hospital in Mangaluru along with ABVP staged a protest outside DC office on Monday November 7 against the poor condition of girls’ hostel.

Addressing the protestors, ABVP leader Sudhith Shetty said, "The hostel is in a poor state posing risk to the students staying there. MLA JR Lobo has failed to take cognizance of the problem and solve the same."

A nursing student Akshatha said that there is only one screw to hold the latch on the hostel door of the Government School of Nursing facing the University College grounds . Just a push from outside opens the door leading into the hostel in which 140 nursing students stay. Similar is the condition of the entrance door, the door facing the Government Wenlock Hospital Mortuary and the balcony door facing the general ward of Government Wenlock Hospital," she said.

As there is no regular cook, these students are forced to prepare lunch and dinner for themselves and also for about 200 students in the hostel. Students complained of delay of nine months in payment of stipend of Rs. 1,000 per month.
