Pune Hostel Expels Four Girls for a Month Over Online Pizza Order
Pune: In a shocking incident, four female students were expelled for a month from the Social Welfare Hostel in Pune after one of them ordered a pizza online. The hostel, run by the Social Justice Department, houses around 250 students.
Hostel Warden Issues Notice Over Pizza Order
According to reports, hostel warden Minakshi Narahare issued an official notice after discovering that a pizza had been ordered in one of the rooms. As none of the students admitted to placing the order by February 8, the hostel administration suspended their stay for a month.
Parents Protest Against Hostel’s Action
Adding to the controversy, the students’ parents were called in and allegedly subjected to discussions on unrelated topics rather than their children’s academics. Despite their protests, the authorities upheld the expulsion, leading to growing outrage among the students and parents.
The hostel has strict security rules prohibiting outside food and entry of external individuals. However, parents and students are questioning whether such a severe punishment was justified for a minor rule violation.
This incident has sparked widespread debate in Pimpri-Chinchwad, with many criticizing the hostel’s disciplinary measures. The Social Justice Department has yet to clarify if such expulsions are an official policy.
