Compare allI will raise concerns about poorly lit roads, dark pathways, and unsafe spots across campus. I will advocate for regular inspections, timely repair of non-functional streetlights, better lighting near hostels and student areas, and accessible channels for reporting safety concerns. Student safety must be addressed through practical measures, coordination with the relevant authorities, and consistent follow-up.

Poorly lit areas should be identified through student feedback and inspected by the concerned authorities, with repair and maintenance requests followed up systematically. Security arrangements should also be reviewed around libraries, academic buildings and residential areas, especially during examinations and extended study hours. Both male and female students should be able to move around campus safely and report harassment, threats or misconduct without fear of being ignored. Confidential reporting options, clear complaint procedures and appropriate follow-up are necessary. Women’s safety should receive specific attention, but safety measures should remain accessible to every student. My role would be to bring documented student concerns to the relevant authorities, seek timely responses and communicate the progress made. Safety cannot be addressed through assurances alone; it requires functioning infrastructure and accountable procedures.

Safety should be improved by protecting the campus from stray dog and other animal attacks, and by regular night patrolling. The pathways to BAN Hall and other halls lack proper streetlights, which should be installed immediately. Solar streetlights could help reduce the cost.

Campus safety and proper street lighting are basic requirements for students, especially for those who move between hostels, departments, and the library during evening and night hours. As a Court member, my authority is limited, i cannot directly install lights or control campus security arrangements. However, i will do what I can by: Collect specific concerns of Life Science students regarding dark stretches, inadequate lighting, and safety issues on routes commonly used by our faculty. Raise these points properly through faculty-level meetings and official channels so that the administration is made aware of the exact problem areas.

I would push for timely repairs of streetlights and identification of poorly lit areas. Student safety concerns should be reported promptly and followed up with the concerned authorities.
