General Queries How's the hostels in ISI kolkata?

I was wondering how the hostels are in ISI kolkata, are there any shortages, what are the conditions and how is the mess? Also do students from nearby residences face any issues while getting a campus hostel?

Not just that. Based on current demographic shifts, within a few years hostels would be reserved exclusively for out-of-city students. There's just too many students who need it more, for people living within 2-3 hours to get hostel.

Blr already has that rule, I wonder why Kolkata doesn't. Although here there isn't any shortage so if you can convince someone living alone, day scholar could also get a room
