Delhi Technological University (DTU) has inaugurated two new hostels with the capacity to accommodate 1,000 students. With the inauguration of the new hostels, DTU will now be able to accommodate 1,105 girls and 1,605 boys. Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia inaugurated the hostels; i.e. Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Boys Hostel and Virangana Laxmibai Girls Hostel.

“The number of students in DTU has gone up from 6,000 in 2015 to 15,000 in 2022. In such a situation, it is important for us to expand our facilities to accommodate more and more students,” Sisodia said during the inauguration ceremony. The newly constructed hostels are said to be equipped with fully furnished and air conditioned rooms, a TV Room, a gymnasium, indoor games area, a reading and internet room, a dining room, a parlour, an activity room, and a guest room.

Sisodia said that "the expansion will further bolster the world-class education being provided by DTU and help the university nurture its students better. The Kejriwal government aims to provide world-class higher education and professional education to all the students who are joining state universities and facilitating good accommodation for them is a very important part of it."

“If students studying in Delhi government’s state universities require any facilities which are important for their professional development and growth, the Kejriwal government will provide complete funding support for it,” the minister added.

Meanwhile, Delhi Directorate of Education (DoE) has announced that it is now mandatory to present Aadhaar details for admission to private schools under the economically weaker section (EWS), disadvantaged groups (DG) and children with special needs (CWSN) categories from the next academic session 2023-24.
