Tribal Girls Complain of Poor Hostel Conditions and Food Quality in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh
In Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh, tribal girls from hostels have raised concerns about poor living conditions, including overcrowding, substandard food, and cleanliness issues. In Sirohi, Rajasthan, 50 students complained of worms in food and inappropriate warden behavior, prompting the District Collector to order an inquiry. In Dhar, Madhya Pradesh, around 40 students left their overcrowded hostel to protest poor facilities and food quality, later returning after officials assured inspections and action. Both incidents highlight ongoing challenges in tribal girls' hostel management.
