Narayana Jr College Students Ransack Hostel After Locking Staff In Room:- The students of Narayana Junior College in Nizampet, enraged over the excessive strictness by the management and low quality food at the hostel, ransacked the hostel after locking the staff in a room on Tuesday night.

When the warden of the hostel refused to sanction sick leave to a student, that is when the trouble broke out. The other fellow students came in support of him and the argument between the students and the warden turned noisy. When other staff members came into the warden's office, the students locked them in the room and went on a disturbance on all the three floors of the building.

The glass panes of windows were broken by the students, damaged furniture and other equipment, while few of them tried to set the furniture thrown out of the building. However, on receiving a call from the staff, the police thwarted further violence. when the police tried to enter the campus, the students even pelted stones on them. With much difficulty, the police brought the situation under control.

It was inexcusable on the part of students to behave in such a rude manner, said the KPHB Inspector. "If they really need a leave and the hostel authorities do not sanction, they can very well call their parents or other officials for the same. In their student years, this kind of behavior is not good for them. The college management and parents should try to instill patience among the students."

No arrests were made by the police officials.
