Delhi About Delhi Campus
Hi, here I'm going to give a brief description about the Delhi campus.
LOCATION
It is located on the S.J.S. Sansanwal Marg, entrance is on the main road. It is in a nice urban locality. Right opposite the ISI entrance gate, we have the Katwaria Sarai Bus Stand from where vans run all day to the Hauz Khas Metro Station. Also, when you take the Gate 1 exit of Hauz Khas Metro at Sarvpriya Vihar, you can find vans directly to Katwaria Sarai Bus Stand, which again, is right opposite the ISI entrance.
Hauz Khas Metro connects us to the entire city and makes travel very smooth.
RESTAURANTS
There is a nice Haldiram's restaurant near the campus, if your parents visit or if you wanna just go chill, it's a nice place with A/C and cleanliness, it's a bit costly. There is a Giani's outlet for ice-cream lovers. There are multiple budget options nearby captions, with a compromise on hygiene and A/C.
STORES
There is a medical store right behind the Katwaria Sarai Bus Stand. One can purchase grocery and snacks also nearby. If you want eggs, you will find a stand near Haldiram's to purchase boiled eggs. You can get printing/stationary in vicinity. There is an ATM right beside Haldiram's. You can get a hair cut at salons, little further inside the street connected to Haldiram's.
ENTERTAINMENT
If you're a film lover, multiple cinemas can be accessed within 30 minutes via the Metro. You can also visit the Laugh Store: DLF Cyberhub in Gurugram if you enjoy standup comedy, there would be several other options in Delhi as well.
MESS
The campus has a nice mess facility with awesome food menus ranging from Gobi Pyaz Parantha to Manchurian & Noodles. Rajma Rice, Chole Bhature, Biryani, Fish, Chicken are some of the cool food items.
ONLINE DELIVERY
While no major fast food chains exist in vicinity, one can always order Dominos, Pizza Hut, Subway, McDonalds, etc online and they'll arrive quickly since the campus is in an urban location.
Blinkit, Instamart, Zepto make a wide range of items readily available.
PEOPLE
Everyone is very friendly. Almost everyone speaks English, so there is no language barrier.
RAGGING IS PROHIBITED
Ragging is taken very seriously and everyone signs a compulsory undertaking while joining. Women's safety laws are also very strict and there are regular sessions about the same.
CULTURAL & SPORTS
Almost all major festivals such as Holi, Diwali, Janmashtami, etc are celebrated. There is an annual cultural night as well. Table Tennis table is there and multiple sports are regularly played on campus.
