The Greater Chennai Corporation has advised the management of Anna University to handover all the hostels, under its purview, to the corporation. The corporation is looking for places for quarantine facilities to utilise for patients to treat COVID-19 virus cases. Due to the grim situation prevailing in the Chennai city at present, such a request was sought.
The maintenance will be the responsibility of the corporation and they have advised the university to move the personal belongings of the students immediately to facilitate its operations. In case of delay, the corporation determined to act suitably in taking possession of the hostels. At this juncture, two other buildings belonging to the university have already been under use for the quarantine facilities. These were being used for people arriving from different states and over 200 people have been treated and discharges have also taken place. With a overall view, nearly 4000 students could get accommodated in various rooms with sharing of 3/4 people per room and with bunk bed facilities. The biggest worry for the university authorities was that the valuables of students to be preserved upon vacating. Some of the study related materials are to be removed without the consent of the students who have already gone to their native as the college was closed due to the lockdown. The hostel authorities are in a fix in carrying these works keeping in mind the ethical norms to be followed.
