Baisla on Monday met Adityanath and requested him to establish a 1,000-bedded facility here. The youth leader raised concern over the challenges faced by students from Uttar Pradesh in finding a suitable accommodation in Delhi.
"Many students come from economically weaker backgrounds, especially those hailing from rural areas, and struggle to afford a safe and healthy living space in the capital city. This not only affects their academic performance and also puts their safety and well-being at risk," he wrote in the submitted memorandum.
"Considering these challenges, I urge you to consider establishing a hostel specifically for students from Uttar Pradesh in Delhi. Such a hostel, with accommodation for around 1,000 students, would serve as a boon for those who are currently facing difficulty in finding affordable and secure housing," he added. Uttar Pradesh Transport Minister G Dayashankar Singh was also present during the meeting, Baisla said.
