Advising its stakeholders to avoid a pack of dogs, if any, while walking alone or in poorly lit areas on the campus, the university said it was further coordinating with the GHMC in the matter.
“Students/staff are requested to avoid feeding the stray dogs in the hostels/messes, corridors, residences, etc., and help the administration in ensuring the safety and wellbeing of all stakeholders on the campus,” it added.
