This was discussed in a meeting on Tuesday, chaired by dean students’ welfare (DSW) women, Sukhbir Kaur, in which hostel wardens were present. Kaur took charge as DSW (women) on Monday after approval from the PU syndicate on Saturday. This was the first meeting she held with the wardens.
“We have asked wardens to increase their visibility among hostel residents in present circumstances. We have given the wardens many ideas to hold webinars for the hostellers.”
“We have told them to get their contact details so they can be part of these interactive sessions. In the next two days, the topics will be decided,” she said.
“We are already in touch with students and addressing their grievances in the best way possible,” a hostel warden said.
