Old Dog, New Tricks
After a delay in the arrival of the ambulance, students went to B.C. Roy themselves. Upon further investigation, two ambulances were seen outside B.C.Roy, minus their drivers. Two others had been called elsewhere in the line of duty.
15 agonising minutes later, no ambulance. Meena's friends got worried and decided to take matters into their own hands. They took him onto a rickshaw, and were on their way when the much-vaunted ambulance finally arrived. Balram finally needed six stitches to his head, and is currently waiting to get an MRI done at Spandan.
This incident may have ended without serious consequences, but it serves as yet another example of how little separates us from catastrophe here at Kharagpur. Perhaps it would be best if everyone simply worked on the assumption that they will NOT be privy to even mediocre healthcare, and act accordingly.

Fresher commits suicide in MMM
Police said they broke into the room at the Madan Mohan Malaviyya hostel in the campus and recovered the body of Manoj Kumar (18) after the hostel cleaning staff complained of a stench emanating from it.
IIT sources said Kumar, hailing from Rajasthan's Shivpuri, had preferred to stay back in the hostel even as most of the other residents have gone home for the summer vacations.
Police said prima facie it appeared to be a case of suicide and investigations were on.
Last year a fifth year student of M.Sc (Physics) had also allegedly committed suicide in the campus, the sources added.

Prof. Damodar Acharya rejoins as Director
After two months of confusion and uncertainty Prof. Damodar Acharya rejoined the institute after BoG IIT Kharagpur authorized him for the same on 18th may. He was also cleared from all the charges alleged against him regarding repeated negligence of the pathetic condition of medical facilities in the campus. He had resigned after students' protests after death of Rohit Kumar, a third year electrical engineering student due to so called medical negligence. His resignation was not accepted though and he was given an indefinite leave.
It is notable that institute's explanation to the Centre alleges section of faculties and outside elements for stoking students' sentiments after march 22 incident. An inquiry committee comprising Justice(retd) Malay Basu, retired judge of Kolkata high court and Subir choudhary, former IIMC director and an alumnus of IIT Kharagpur has been formed to investigate the whole incident. Amidst of all this another committee comprising of Doctors Bibhulkalyani Das and Sitesh Dasgupta cleared all charges of negligence against the B.C.Roy Technology hospital and IIT administration. Their conclusion was that Rohit had died of head injuries he incurred after falling from rickshaw. The committee however stressed on the need for advanced medical facilities, better ambulance services and a 24*7 pharmacy in the campus. The committee also suggested stress management programs and frequent health camps for the welfare of students.
