the truth behind the colorful walls

If u ever get a chance to visit my institute; that is NIT Rkl then i would advise you to come pay a visit to out newest attraction of our Institue..The new Hall Of Residence - the Homi Bhabha Hall Of Residence is the newest addition to the line of pre-existing ancient architectural failures of the civil engineering designs who designed the previous halls of our NIT..Torn and Tattered is what the old ones were..And although the new one seems to have a fresh blend of the basic kindergarten colors in it(red,blue,yellow) it isnt the impression that it gives from the outside.

As mentioned earlier about the pathetic condition about the facilities and hygienic conditions of our hall i would like a few more subjects of utmost importance to the student body which are unware of our hall's condition.This article of mine comes a little late.i planned to pen it at 11 in the night but was unable due to a game of cards going on in my room at that very moment which i find pretty interesting..Now its the eve of Ganesh Puja..Its 11 in the night and i walk towards the mess to fill my bottle full of water..now the best part about a general night at my hall is that the mess has water supply enough for 420 students..now the bad part is that that day it didnt have supply even for one..there was no water in the mess since 11 in the night...having lost the hope of being able to quench my thirst i returned to my game of cards in which i was engrossed till 3 in the morning...after that i decided to try out my long lost luck ofhaving a sip of water to touch my lips..to my surprise there was still no water at even that unearthly hour..how often do you expect a tank to run out of water at a time when no one uses it???

to make matters worse there was no water supply in any of the bathrooms except one in some far end corner of the hall...now in case an emergency of some sort arises that requires the use of a bathroom how is a person supposed to stay clean?...or does the institute now expect us to clean our bowels before going to sleep?....

utter nonsense i say and so say the other 400 students along with me....although fruitless i still live in constant hope that someday before i pass out i expect to use a clean bathroom which does not stink of our excreta....
