Remarks

There are positives as well as negative in every college not in my college though. Positive is the environment provides a suitable condition for studying as well as the hostellites also creates the environment for fun and merriment. Negative is that u have restrictions to go outside of the campus after 10, this I finds it boring and even you cannot roam inside the campus being a student after 9 or so.
