Delhi to Convert Vacant Government Buildings into Student Hostels After Satya Niketan Collapse

After the tragic collapse of the Satya Niketan building in Delhi, the government announced a plan to convert unused government buildings into student hostels to provide safe accommodation. A committee will be formed to assess the need for such hostels and to identify suitable buildings across the city. The plan also includes a review of private PGs that are deemed unsafe, with authorities intending to inspect and enforce safety standards. The move is part of Delhi's broader effort to address the housing crunch for students and ensure their safety after the recent incident.
