They have urged the authorities to complete the long-pending hostel construction while citing the safety and health concerns faced by them to live outside campus.

In a video of the event, which went viral on social media platforms, the doctors could be heard raising slogans "Humaari maange poori karo [Fulfill our demands].

Speaking to the media, one of the students highlighted the problems faced by the students due to the lack of hostel accommodation. He informed that after so much preparation to clear the NEET exam, the students have to pay 10,000 to 15,000 for accommodation. Due to this, several students opt to stay in the slum areas and suffer health issues such as typhoid, dysentery, etc.
