<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nLady Shri Ram College for Women, University of Delhi, reopened its Residence Hall after four years of extensive renovation today. Reaffirming its commitment to providing a safe, inclusive, and student-centered residential experience, the reopening marks a significant milestone in strengthening campus infrastructure and enriching student life. The Residence Hall was inaugurated by Ms. Vasvi Bharat Ram, Member, Governing Body, in the presence of Prof. Kanika K. Ahuja, Principal, Dr. Ujjayini Ray, Hostel Warden, faculty members, staff, parents, and students.The renovation was made possible through a generous contribution from the SRF Foundation. The project included roof waterproofing, complete reconstruction of seven bathroom blocks, and the air-conditioning of eighteen second-floor rooms, significantly enhancing the quality, comfort, and safety of the residential facilities. With these upgrades, the Residence Hall has reopened to accommodate approximately 150 first-year students in 100 rooms.<\/p>\n The Residence Hall was inaugurated by Ms. Vasvi Bharat Ram, Member, Governing Body, in the presence of Prof. Kanika K.

After four long years, these walls are alive again. This hostel, which once stood quiet, has been renovated, refreshed, and reopened\u2014not just with paint and furniture, but with purpose.” She encouraged students to embrace the Residence Hall as a home built on care, empathy, and mutual respect, emphasising the importance of supporting one another through homesickness, celebrations, learning, and sisterhood.Speaking on the occasion, Vasvi Bharat Ram said, “Hostel is a place where strangers become roommates, roommates become friends, friends become family”. Students welcomed the reopening with enthusiasm, with one resident sharing, “This upgrade reflects the College’s investment in our future. Living here inspires us to aim higher and make the most of campus life.”An interaction over lunch brought together parents, hostellers, faculty and staff, offering families an opportunity to familiarise themselves with the ethos of the LSR Residence Hall and its residential environment. The programme concluded with a guided tour of the newly renovated hostel, where guests were shown the upgraded facilities and interacted with students and college members. As a new batch of residents moves in, the Residence Hall aims to provide a space for learning, friendship, leadership and personal growth, in keeping with the college’s vision of empowering young women.<\/div>\n![\"The](\"https:\/\/static.toiimg.com\/photo\/msid-132787186\/the-residence-hall-was-inaugurated-by-ms-vasvi-bharat-ram-member-governing-body-in-the-presence-of-prof-kanika-k-ahuja-principal-dr-ujjayini-ray-hostel-warden-pics-lsr.jpg\" "\\"The")
