For the last several days, undergraduate girl students of the College have been protesting demanding the college administration to allocate accommodation in the newly constructed hostel building for them.

However, the College and OU authorities decided to allot the hostel accommodation only for the PG students of the college.

Earlier, the State government had accorded permission to Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority and released funds to OU for construction of the hostel building for accommodating 200 girl students of Nizam College.
