Unable to cope with water crises, Medical colleges suspend classes
Mangaluru: Severe water shortage in the coastal city has forced several private medical colleges and hostels to shut partially and have asked students to go home till the crises were solved.
It is said that KMC hospitals at Attavar and Jyothi have been affected due to the shortage and sources say that if the situation continues, the Attavar hospital might reduce the number of in-patients from 500 to only 200.
In the meantime, some students who have been pursuing their medical, dental and nursing courses have been sent home and the health club and gym have also been shut.
The scene at Fr Muller Medical College is no different and the management has already suspended certain classes temporarily. However, only those students who have exams would stay back.
Water shortage is also taking a toll on hotel business. As a result, hotels are forced to serve meals on plantain leaves and paper plates. Some hotels use eco-friendly bio-plates made from arecanut sheaths. Hotels cannot depend on water tankers as they are in great demand since Mangaluru City Corporation is depending on them.
