EARLY TIMES REPORT

POONCH, Feb 17: Established in year 2005, the Government Degree College (GDC) Mendhar which is situated near the Line of Control (LoC) lacks hostel facility even after fifteen years owing to which students are facing hardships.
Expressing their plights, the students of GDC Mendhar said that the college is situated near the LoC and during the cross-border firing and shelling they face lot of problems in reaching college. They said, “Had there been a hostel facility provided by the higher education department to this college which is one of the oldest colleges in the district, we would not have been suffering.”
A student of the same college said that sometimes they could not reach the college for days together due to frequent border skirmishes.
Another student said that most of the times they miss their studies as several lessons remain unattended due to border firing. College students expressed that hostel facilities to this college could help the students to a great extent as students will be able to attend their classes and lectures on regular basis.
Worthwhile to mention here that GDC Mendhar has a good strength of students reaching college from various areas and in a joint appeal all the students have urged the Lt Governor J&K UT to provide hostel facilities to this college.
