💨 Abstract

A minor fire occurred at Jawaharlal Nehru University's Godavari Hostel on Dec 27, originating from an air-conditioning unit. No injuries were reported. The fire was quickly controlled, with the cause identified as overload due to heater usage. The JNU Students' Union blamed the incident on poor safety measures and neglect by the administration, accusing them of failing to address hostel safety concerns despite repeated requests for funds.
